Vertically Integrated Clinics (VICs)

Four comprehensive care clinics are a part of the School's Vertically Integrated Clinics (VICs), which combine classroom and real world experience by offering students in all four dental classes and all three dental hygiene classes an opportunity to work together, with faculty supervision, to achieve high levels of clinical competence.

Some highlights of the School's Clinical Program are:

  • Approximately 1,756 hours of clinical experience
  • Comprehensive patient care during all four years of dental school
  • Clinical experiences (observation/assisting/patient care) begin in the first semester of the first year of dental school
  • In the D4 year students participate in three off-site clinical rotations
  • Students participate in hospital rotations at the University of Michigan Health System
