UCLan School of Dentistry prepares its first graduates.
The new School of Dentistry at the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) opened on 3 September 2007 and was the first dental school to be built in Britain for many years. This September the School will be complete with all four years of students and the first students will be applying for their vocational trainee positions this autumn. This article reflects on its successful programme and describes how UCLan's School of Dentistry differs from traditional dental schools.
