The East Carolina University School of Dental Medicine’s Class of 2027 was honored on Friday, Feb. 28, during the school’s annual White Coat Ceremony — which ushered the students into the clinical phase of their dental education.
The students were joined by family, friends, faculty, staff, fellow students and administrators as they walked across the stage and joined the ranks of those who came before them in the dental profession.
East Carolina University School of Dental Medicine provided 24 kids with free dental care during Give Kids a Smile day at Ross Hall on Friday, February 7.
Dental residents, faculty and local pediatric dentists were able to complete 195 procedures including cleanings, x-rays, crowns, extractions and more.
The dental school has participated in the event in the community in the past, but this was the first event hosted in Ross Hall. The event was co-sponsored by the East Central Dental Society.
