School of Dentistry

With attentive faculty and high-quality programs that emphasize clinical experience, Creighton University prepares you to confidently enter the field of dentistry at all levels.

For professionals with good hearts, delivering better care.

At the Creighton School of Dentistry, excellence begins with our faculty. As a student, you will learn from professors who are not only leading experts in the field, but who are also attentive teachers, committed to helping you become a well-rounded professional. Whatever path you pursue in dentistry, Creighton connects you to the scholar-mentors — and the clinical experience – you need to succeed.

But our goal is to teach dentists who are more than skilled practitioners. By the time you graduate, you’ll find that compassionate service and community leadership are as intrinsic to the profession as technical excellence.

Our dental clinic, for example, provides clinical experience for dental students while also giving high-quality and affordable care to residents in our community. And as one of the most affordable private dental schools in the country, we help ensure access to the profession.

“When I think about Creighton, it’s community. The relationships and experiences I had in undergrad made me eager to continue my education at Creighton for dental school.”

James Garriott, School of Dentistry
