Dental Science Building Building a Brighter Future for UFCD

The spaces where we work and learn shape what we can accomplish. This building project is about creating an environment where students thrive, faculty and staff excel, and researchers can push the boundaries in oral health and research.

Modern, light-filled healthcare corridor rendering with floor-to-ceiling windows on the left, wood slat ceiling detail, and built-in seating areas. Pendant globe lights hang above tables with chairs and lounge seating. On the right, clean white walls line a hallway with doorways and a “Medium Classroom” sign. Several people are present, including a person seated in a wheelchair near a staff member in blue scrubs, and others walking or seated farther down the corridor. The space has a polished floor, soft neutral colors, and contemporary finishes.

$200M+ State investment in UFCD's visionary building project.

100,000 sq. ft. New clinical and educational space added to by 2028.

160 Additional DMD students and residents by 2031.


The building addition will serve as the gateway to UF's health campus, reflecting the quality of education, research and patient care happening here. Since 90% of our students are Florida residents and ~70% of the stay in Florida after graduation, this investment directly benefits communities throughout the state.
