Shadowing Program

 

Spend time in local dental offices, learning the tricks of the trade!

 

 

    Local Alpha Omegans are providing Tufts AO students with the opportunity to shadow them in their office to get a first-hand experience of how a dental practice runs, as well as a chance to decide whether they want to pursue a specialty degree after graduation. Regardless of your dental experience, these dentists are willing to take you into their office and allow you the unique chance to observe, learn and understand the field of dentistry in the real world.

 

    Simply call up any of the following dentists, explain to them that you are a member of Tufts Alpha Omega, and ask when you can come in! You can shadow for a day, a week, a summer... the possibilities are endless!

 

    The following dentists are from all specialties, and all their offices are all accessible by public transportation (T).
