Dentists play a significant role in our oral health care throughout our lives. Whether it's maintenance in our early years, braces in our adolescent years, or treatment for gum disease or teeth extractions in our senior years, successful dentists are capable and compassionate practitioners.
Get an inside track.
We have our own dental school, so we know what it takes to be admitted. Pre-dent is not a major at Marquette; it is a statement of your intention to go to dental school someday. Our pre-dental advising will help you prepare not only for Marquette's School of Dentistry, but for any program around the country.
In demand.
Here’s an interesting thought: Because public oral hygiene is the best it has ever been, demand for dentists is very high. (People tend to keep their teeth longer now than they ever have, and they need dentists to care for them.) Combine this with the increasing number of dentists retiring, and you have a rapidly growing job market for dentists.
Get preparation for the DAT and beyond.
With your liberal arts-based education, you'll develop the analytical, critical-thinking and communication skills you’ll need to succeed on the Dental Admissions Test, in dental school and in dental practice.
