Guest toothcollector Posted May 12, 2002 Report Share Posted May 12, 2002 Do Canadian dental schools in general require you to collect teeth like American schools? More specifically, do UofA or UofC require that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toothy Posted May 12, 2002 Report Share Posted May 12, 2002 which dental school is U of C? Do you mean UBC? I know that in the past, UofA needed teeth. Almost all schools have to have real teeth for learning endo. Just get them from your friendly neighbourhood dentist, or convince family members to get teeth extracted.

Guest toothy Posted May 15, 2002 Report Share Posted May 15, 2002 well apparently at uwo there are the following requirements: *** 2 upper central incisors, 2 lower cent/lat incisors, 2 lower premolars, 2 upper premolars (should have either two roots or two canals) 2 lower molars, 2 upper molars (wisdom teeth unacceptable) - teeth extracted for orthodontic reasons are not useful as the apices are not fully developed. The teeth should be placed in bleach for not more than 5 minutes and then washed and stored in a 10% buffered formalin solution. Do not store teeth in Bleach as this will alter the dentin... *** I sure hope dentists keep formalin in their practice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest milkytooth Posted May 16, 2002 Report Share Posted May 16, 2002 But it's for later, I think. Don't remember. Anyway, some of the people will bring more than needed and you can ask them to give you some... It's not that critical... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
