Foothills Medical Centre

The program will provide dentists with a broad multidisciplinary approach to all aspects of clinical dentistry, and to all types of patients, from healthy to special needs. Advanced postgraduate training will be provided in several dental specialties, including:

  • Endodontics
  • Oral and maxillofacial surgery
  • Oral medicine
  • Periodontics
  • Prosthodontics
  • Pediatric dentistry

The training consists mostly of chair-side clinical teaching, a series of lectures, journal clubs, rounds and seminars throughout the year. The dental residents’ training will also include case presentations and treatment planning seminars, as well as other sessions dealing with dental and medical topics of importance. Residents are additionally enrolled in a Critical Thinking Session with medical residents at the University of Calgary Cumming School of Medicine.

Residents in the program will also participate, with the other residents, in the University of Alberta, Faculty of Medicine & Dentistry’s Conscious Sedation Program. This course consists of didactic and practical components designed to provide participants with experience in the selection and application of various modalities of intravenous, oral and inhalation conscious sedation as well as certification in Advanced Cardiac Life Support.

    This was an excellent hospital based residency program. You spend a lot of time learning to manage medically compromised and special needs patients. You see a lot of patients with cancers prior to their chemo or radiation treatments. You will also become comfortable managing dental trauma.

    I became incredibly confident with my oral surgery skills after just a few months. There is not very much exposure to prosthodontics in this program.

    There are about 5 weeks of various medical rotations spread out during the program, some of which I liked and others not so much. You also spend a couple weeks in other dental clinics (paediatric hospital and community clinics). There is also a 2 week program in Edmonton where you receive your IV conscious sedation certification!

    The only downside to this program is that the on call schedule is much heavier than most other GPR programs, as you are on call half of the time.
