The West Virginia University School of Dentistry is adding to its advanced education programs, becoming the first institution in the state to offer a residency in pediatric dentistry.
The Department of Pediatric Dentistry recently received initial approval from the Commission on Dental Accreditation, allowing the first residents to enroll in the two-year program in July 2024.
“To be able to begin recruiting for our new pediatric dentistry residency program is essential for our goal as a land-grant institution to advance health care, specifically the oral health care of children, in West Virginia,” Dr. Dami Kim, residency program director, said.
