Graduate Endodontics at the SIU School of Dental Medicine
Endodontics is the art and science of treating and replacing tissues within the body of the tooth, the tooth pulp, as well as the tissue surrounding and supporting the tooth, especially those tissues at the root end and the periapical tissues. Most endodontic patient treatment scenarios involve thorough removal of injured or diseased pulp tissues, and replacement with biocompatible sealing materials.
The Endodontic Section of Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine aspires to be one of the top clinical endodontic training programs in the world, while actively engaging our residents in important clinical and translational research. The Section has responsibility for educational and research programs at the undergraduate, postgraduate, and continuing education levels. A CODA accredited program at the postdoctoral level is available for qualified students wishing to become specialists in endodontics.
