What We Offer
NYU Lutheran Dental Medicine’s exceptional service-learning training is
groundbreaking.
The goal of NYU Lutheran Dental Medicine’s
pioneering concept of “dentistry without walls”
is to improve availability and quality of oral
health services to global populations who are
neglected by an overwhelmed local health
system. By building strategic partnerships with
universities and healthcare facilities in dental
shortage areas, wherever they may exist,
NYU Lutheran Dental broadens experiences
and education for faculty and residents as they
become part of the healthcare continuum. For
students, faculty and underserved communities,
the impact of NYU Lutheran Dental is life-changing.
Drawing on four decades of experience in
developing and delivering exceptional servicelearning postdoctoral training to dental residents
across the United States and beyond, NYU
Lutheran Dental Medicine has demonstrated that
it is uniquely qualified to establish such programs
for university and health center partners
anywhere – extraordinarily well, exceedingly
efficiently and with proven educational and
clinical oral health results.
