The College of Dentistry at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center has received full reaccreditation from the Commission on Dental Accreditation of the American Dental Association, the nation’s largest dental association.
This was accomplished under the direction of Timothy Hottel, who served as dean of the college for eight years. The reaccreditation designation, which lasts for seven years, comes after a process that included review of the curriculum, site visits, and interviews with patients, faculty, staff, and students.
