Complex Care Faculty

Overview

Complex Dentistry faculty treat patients with dental issues that are intricate and require an experienced dentist to diagnose, treatment plan, and render care. Complex care is beyond the treatment ability of a predoctoral dental student, but TCNM has dentists assigned to our complex care clinic to perform these treatments with the assistance of predoctoral students. Based on our classification system, students will learn to recognize the need for referrals. These cases may involve multiple issues, such as:

• Missing teeth

• Severe bite problems

• Loss of vertical dimension
