The 157,756-sf, nine-story building features nearly 300 dental chair stations, clinical areas, classrooms and study spaces. Patient parking will be in a garage on the new structure's first three levels.
The facility will allow for a 25 percent increase in enrollment at the College of Dentistry, which will increase access to dental care for Texans. Since 90 percent of Texas A&M College of Dentistry graduating students stay in Texas to practice, the college will play a critical role in addressing the statewide shortage of oral health care providers. The $127 million facility is expected to be completed fall 2019.
