 Orthodontic training at Marquette is provided in a
two-year program accredited by the American Dental Association. The
orthodontic residents are dentists (DDS or DMD) who are being trained
as specialists in orthodontics.
Orthodontic faculty are dentists (DDS
or DMD) who have completed 2-3 years of specialty training in an
accredited orthodontic residency program beyond their 4 years of dental
school training.
Graduate Program
The graduate program is twenty-four months in duration with an emphasis
on high quality clinical training.
First year residents normally take
on an initial caseload of 40-50 patients and then receive an additional
transfer of 90-100 patients in their second year.
There is a strong
commitment from the local orthodontic community and our part-time
faculty to provide most of the clinic coverage. In addition to our full-time
faculty, we have 15
part-time clinical faculty, who have broad experience in clinical
orthodontics; seven are board certified and five are current members
of the Angle Society.
