EndoGators Alumni

Nine people in black srcubs stand on a staircase, all of them doing a "Gator Chomp" with their arms and smiling warmly.

Established in 1991, the Endodontics Residency Program is one of the youngest advanced education programs at the UF College of Dentistry. Our 125 program alumni have gone on to provide care for patients throughout Florida, the United States and other parts of the world.
