About Hacettepe Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi

Hacettepe Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi is the Faculty of Dentistry of Hacettepe University, based on the university's Sıhhiye campus in central Ankara, where its faculty hospital provides dental treatment alongside teaching and research. According to the faculty's history page, its school of dentistry was founded in 1963 within Hacettepe's Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences as the second dental school in Türkiye, starting with thirty students on a five-year programme. It produced its first graduates in 1968 and became a faculty in its own right in 1971. Departments were added through the 1970s: periodontology in 1970, oral diagnosis and radiology in 1973, paediatric dentistry and orthodontics in 1975, and endodontics in 1976, alongside the original surgery, prosthetics and restorative departments. After several moves within the Sıhhiye campus, the faculty moved into a new building in 2009. Specialist postgraduate dental training began there in 2012, and the faculty also runs doctoral programmes. The history page notes that the faculty has been a member of the Association for Dental Education in Europe (ADEE) since 2004 and has taken part in Erasmus exchanges since 2007. Turkish Wikipedia notes that the building houses a research and development laboratory and a laser centre. The faculty's contact page gives its telephone as +90 312 680 24 84.
