A smile can make a big statement, but sometimes skeletal and dental differences can make beautiful, healthy teeth feel out of reach. The Department of Orthodontics at UTHealth Houston School of Dentistry teaches students and residents how to resolve these differences—from minor tooth irregularities to serious jaw malformations—and restore patient confidence. Our faculty employ the most advanced diagnostic and treatment techniques available while training tomorrow’s orthodontics leaders to follow in their footsteps.
Your gift today, no matter the size, will help our experts continue delivering brighter smiles to patients of all ages.
Our Top Priorities
Opportunities for progress come in many forms and often arise quickly. Our Chair Fund allows department leadership to help in all areas of need, from advancing leading-edge oral health research to ensuring our students have the resources they need to succeed and to other opportunities that advance each department’s mission at a moment’s notice.
With nearly 60 million people across the United States living in underserved areas, our communities need dental professionals more than ever. Your gift today toward the Advanced Education Fund will create opportunities for our students to develop into the experts who will fill this gap and advance the field of oral health care. By supporting these students, you are supporting a healthier future for our friends and families.
Everyone deserves quality oral health care no matter their age, status, or location – and this is why research is so important. Innovation and discovery keep us on the frontlines of the dental profession and provide new ways of serving our communities. When you make a gift to the Research Fund, you support groundbreaking work that will bring new smiles to our friends, families, and neighbors.
