Education Program
Applying for the Program
The program in advanced education in general practice residency is
accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation. The commission
is a specialized accrediting body recognized by the United States
Department of Education. The Commission on Dental Accreditation can
be contacted by phone at 312-440-4653 or by mail at 211
East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, IL, 60611.
The commission has accredited the postdoctoral program in general
practice residency; however, this education area is not one of the
American Dental Association's (ADA) recognized dental specialty
areas. Therefore dentists graduating from this program cannot announce
that they are specialists, as recognized by the ADA.
The GPR program participates in both the "PASS" and
"Match" programs. Please apply for PASS at www.adea.org/dental_eduation_pathways/pass.
