Title: Forsyth, Harvard, and endodontic education: 1970-1987. Author: Millstein C. Journal: J Hist Dent; 2007; 55(2):78-84. PubMed ID: 17848048. Abstract: In 1970, there were few fully-educated endodontists and formalized endodontic programs in the United States. Dr. Alvin Krakow began a teaching/clinical program that combined the best in technical education and research for academically-minded young clinicians. The Forsyth Dental Center hosted the program while the Harvard University School of Dental Medicine (HSDM) offered the prerequisite courses in basic science. The program ended in 1987 and was reinstituted in 1993. Today, the program continues to graduate a small group of diversified and educated clinicians. A number of graduates in the original group have made significant contributions to the specialty. This historical perspective focuses on the early years of the combined program.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
