OHSU School of Dentistry
We’re launching a new era at South Waterfront
After many years of planning, our vision for taking our school to the next level has finally become a reality. Thanks to an outpouring of support from the dental community, OHSU has started construction on a new School of Dentistry facility called the Skourtes Tower, as part of the larger OUS/OHSU Collaborative Life Sciences Building rising on the South Waterfront.
Watch highlights from our October 19 celebration at South Waterfront.
The Skourtes Tower facility will enable the school to:
- Train more dentists and enhance the learning experience
- Expose dental students to team-based, interdisciplinary health care
- Serve more patients with expanded services
- Stimulate research and clinical innovation
- Create a sustainable funding base
The role of philanthropy
It will take the power of many to make our vision real.
We have already shown that our community is capable of rallying behind a common dream — we have raised $28 million of the total $43 philanthropic goal. Now we must identify the remaining $15 million necessary to complete the project. To get there will require a new surge of support from everyone with a stake in dental health. Please join this historic effort by considering making your own philanthropic investment today.
