Message from the Chairman

Welcome to the Department of Pediatric Dentistry at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, Texas!

 

We are a multicultural group of individuals representing many countries from all continents. We are a fun, determined team, fully committed to optimal oral and craniofacial health of the child. This commitment is underscored by our pursuit of excellence in basic, behavioral, transitional and clinical research and in the provision of exemplary clinical care.

Our philosophy of care encompasses the early identification and prevention of oral and craniofacial disease in all children, but especially high-risk groups. Our situation in San Antonio, despite being one of the most pleasant of cities in which to live, represents an enormous challenge, as we are located in an area of significant oral and general health disparity.

We are particularly proud of our faculty who have achieved national and international acclaim in their respective areas of clinical and research expertise. We are also exceedingly proud of our residents who, in addition to outstanding clinical training, have an enviable record of research accomplishments at the national level. Our alumni, who have attained national and international leadership positions, reflect well on our department, and are also a great source of pride. We are ably assisted by an outstanding group of administrative, clinical and research staff who are valued members of our team.

We welcome your comments and inquiries. If you desire further information after visiting our web site, please contact me at:
