DESCRIPTION

The Faculty of Dentistry educates more dentists each year than all three other Hungarian dental schools combined; over two-thirds of practicing dentists in Hungary received their diploma and professional specialty training at Semmelweis University’s Faculty of Dentistry.

The Faculty  was formally established at the  Medical University of Budapest (now Semmelweis University) in 1955 by  Professor Károly Balogh, who served as its first dean.

Each year, 95-100 first-year Hungarian students begin their studies at the Faculty, while there are a total of  some 70-80 foreign students enrolled in the English and German language programmes. The total number of dental students studying at the Faculty is near 800. The Dental Faculty has 100 full and part time professors and tutors. The major theoretical and clinical subjects are taught by the Faculty of Medicine.

Six of the Faculty’s eight departments are located in the recently completed  Dental Clinical and Training Centre, one of the most state-of-the-art dental institutes in Europe. With its 12,000 square metres of floor space and 172 dental work stations, it provides an ideal facility and conditions for both undergraduate and postgraduate training and clinical research.

The Department of Oro-Maxillofacial Surgery and Stomatology is located in a separate building that has recently been refurbished and rebuilt and completed with a new floor giving room for a new inpatient ward with a  25-bed capacity, as well as a fully equipped operation theatre suitable for major head and neck surgeries under general anesthesia.
