Radboudumc
The department of Dentistry is one of 38 medical departments of the Radboudumc. It consists of roughly 300 employees. The department focuses mainly on training dental students (67 students per year, in a 6-year BSc-MSc curriculum). The postgraduate specialization Orthodontics is also positioned within the department, while the postgraduate specialization Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery is positioned within a separate department. Second-line outpatient orofacial care from both departments is organized in the Centre for Orofacial Care. The department currently has seven professors and they fall under the head of the department a.i.
Radboudumc is changing its organisation, management and ways of working (together). We are doing this to be able to help our patients even better in the future, to conduct even better research and to respond even better to social developments. Radboudumc is working on these changes in well-considered steps, within the
Fit for the Future programme. As the Radboudumc organization is in transition, the organization of the department will also change, with a focus on establishing the Centre for Orofacial Care, where specialized oral and maxillofacial surgical care will be concentrated.
