About the Program
Our shadowing program will provide you with opportunities to shadow a dentist and follow their shifts throughout the day! Regardless of whether you are going into dentistry or not, this program will allow you to gain valuable insights into the field, explore the true experience of being a dentist and make informed decisions about your career path.
