[a] Dental schools not listed do no have Oral Biology departments or graduate programs, or plans for either.[b] Respondee indicated that is highly probable that the program will begin as of this date.
[c] Some students in these programs are in a dual program which leads also to dental specialty certificiation.
[d] Some students in these programs are pursuing both the M.S. in Oral Biolgoy and the dental degree in dual degree programs.
[e] These programs include specialty training and lead to a Doctor of Medical Science Degree.
[f] Three hold D.D.S. degree; the other three are in the dual D.D.S./Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. program.
[g] Dental Schools no longer in operation (1993).
