Digital Dentistry Campaign

Digital solutions and technology help reduce patient treatment time, dental production time, and material costs while improving health records and surgical accuracy. Your gift to the Digital Dentistry fund will help us acquire new software and hardware, equipping our units with digital radiographs, intraoral scanners, and onsite 3D printing and manufacturing. With these resources, our students can graduate with proficiency in all aspects of digital workflows.

Dentistry Outreach Clinics Support Fund

Our outreach programs improve access to oral health care for over 20,000 people across Atlantic Canada, including school children and equity-deserving populations. Through community clinics, students gain hands-on clinical experience while serving diverse patients. Your support helps them build skills and deliver essential care where it’s needed most.
