Overview

The multidisciplinary General Practice Residency at the Montreal Children’s Hospital of the º£½ÇÉçÇø Health Centre is a comprehensive hospital-based academic program. It provides an enriching clinical experience combined with an exhaustive curriculum covering all facets of dental medicine.

The program is based in a pediatric hospital which exposes the resident to general and emergency dental care, oral oncology, facial pain management, as well as children and adolescents with physical and cognitive disabilities. The focus of the training program is advanced education in general dentistry.
