About the Sydney Faculty of Dentistry
Teaching and learning
As Australia’s first dental school, the Sydney Faculty of Dentistry has been training dental practitioners for more than 100 years.
Sydney graduates are caring, clear thinking, clinically outstanding and research capable. They are engaged and globally aware and have the capability to become leaders in oral health, dentistry and research.
Academics at the Faculty of Dentistry are expert oral health professionals, and the university’s researchers are pioneering new dental treatments to improve patient outcomes. By studying with the University of Sydney, you will acquire the patient-centred, evidence-based skills required for the modern dental practice.
Research
Researchers in the Faculty of Dentistry work collaboratively to address major health issues, with a focus on two major themes, “ageing well, ageing productively” and “chronic diseases.”
Discover how Sydney Dental School’s innovative research is delivering advances in treatment, improving the understanding of the complex mechanisms that cause disease, promoting evidence-based teaching, and driving improved health outcomes across Australia and around the world.

Community
The faculty is based in integrated research, teaching, and clinical settings. Co-located with Sydney Dental Hospital, Westmead Centre for Oral Health and community clinics in New South Wales and beyond, students, teachers, researchers and alumni are the foundation of the professional community.
Sydney’s engaged, socially conscious community is constantly seeking new ways to learn, share best practice and solve problems. This ensures they are able to continue to offer education of the highest calibre and conduct leading research, which translates to real-world impact.
Through professional associations, the Dental Alumni Society of the University of Sydney and the Sydney University Dental Association for students, community members have access to resources, real-world advice and, of course, each other.
