How to Become a Patient at Tufts Dental School in Boston, Massachusetts

Help Wanted: Dental School Teachers - No Experience Needed

Where is the largest group dental practice in Massachusetts? New England? Some of the finest dentists in the world practice there. They use the latest materials and techniques. The dentists stay up to date by participating in continuing education, but even more they provide continuing  education for other dentists around the world. Tufts University School of Dental Medicine (TUSDM) is a premier teaching institution and a premier oral health care facility. Dentists all over New England refer their patients to Tufts for general and specialty treatment. Perhaps, Tufts' dental school should be your next dental office.

At One Kneeland ST, in Boston's Theater District / Chinatown neighborhood, TUSDM is easily accessible by public transportation. The New England Medical Center orange line station is right across the street from the school. Due to traffic and confusing downtown streets, the T is the easiest way to get to a morning appointment on time or get home quickly after an afternoon appointment. For those who must drive into the school, there is a large parking garage next door to the Wang Center on Tremont St; dental school receptionists can validate parking tickets for a discount.
