Tufts Dental Aesthetics Society
About
It’s a well known fact that Tufts University School of Dental Medicine is at the forefront of clinical education and research. Graduates from Tufts are perceived as great clinicians and excel in all aspects of dentistry. As members of this profession, we believe that there is an ever-increasing demand in the field of aesthetic dentistry, and we need a platform that integrates all of the aspects that lead to the creation of an aesthetic smile. Aesthetics requires the interdisciplinary approach of Periodontics, Restorative, Prosthodontics, and Implant Dentistry.
Our Mission
Our mission is to foster learning in all aspects of esthetic dentistry, including cosmetic and restorative dentistry. We collaborate with faculty, guest speakers, student organizations, and PG students to host lectures, workshops and events to bridge working relationships with various specialties. Students will learn clinical and laboratory aspects of achieving an aesthetic smile from renowned professionals in esthetic and cosmetic dentistry. Students will be more confident and equipped to broadly diagnose and design treatment plans using an interdisciplinary approach between Periodontics, Prosthodontics, Restorative and Implant Dentistry. Moreover, Tufts Dental Esthetics Society works to establish a support network among alumni, faculty, PG students, and practicing dentists.
Events
- Guest Speaker Lectures: Meetings for members to dive deep into case studies, discuss challenging cases, and exchange best practices in esthetic dentistry.
- Lunch and Learn Sessions: Gatherings where members can network, share case studies, and learn from a Cosmetic/Esthetic Dentist over a casual lunch.
- Hands-On Workshops: workshops featuring renowned Cosmetic/Esthetic dentists sharing insights on the latest techniques and trends in smile enhancement.
