Master of Science - Orthodontics

Program Overview

The graduate program in orthodontics is minimally a 36-month program leading to the M.Sc. degree. The deadline for submission of a completed application is August 15 of each year for a program start of July of the following year. Interviews for short-listed applicants are normally held in October/November.

Please Note: There is normally an intake of three students each year

Since its establishment in 1966, the orthodontic program has maintained an excellent reputation in Canada and internationally, producing high quality graduates who have established successful practices world-wide in Australia, Canada, Columbia, Finland, Ireland, Taiwan, United Arab Emirates, and the U.S.A. amongst others. This fully accredited three-year (minimum 36 months) masters program provides eligibility to take the examinations of the Royal College of Dentists of Canada (RCDC) and the American Board of Orthodontics (ABO).

The Program provides a background in the basic sciences underlying orthodontic treatment and instills a critical, independent, problem-solving approach toward clinical practice. Treatment is provided in a modern 14-chair orthodontic clinic with state-of-the-art computerized diagnostic equipment and an on-site dedicated orthodontic technician. Graduate students have an opportunity to treat at least 50 new patients and a similar number of transfer patients using a wide variety of orthodontic techniques.

The strength of the clinical program is the wide range of diversity in instructor philosophies of treatment and the opportunity to learn several techniques such as: 

  • Full fixed modified edgewise type mechanics
  • Sectional arch mechanics
  • Early treatment philosophies
  • Functional orthopaedics
  • Surgical and cleft palate combination orthodontic-surgical cases

The M.Sc. program includes:-

  • Preparation of a Master’s Thesis
  • Oral defence of their research project
  • Presentation of their research at an international forum
  • Submission of an article for publication based on their research
  • Limited teaching in the undergraduate orthodontic clinic
  • Participation in outreach to under-served communities
