The Advancement in Dental Technology - Leeds University School of Dentistry

We have so much history here at the School of Dentistry at the University of Leeds. We are offering the opportunity to view our Dentistry artefacts exhibition and to see how Dentistry has evolved over the years by viewing our Clinical Teaching Facilities.

The Dental Institute has its origins in the dental department of the Leeds Public Dispensary which opened in May 1904. The dental department moved to the Leeds General Infirmary in October 1920 and then to its own premises in Blundell Street in 1928. It joined the National Health Service in 1948 and then moved to the Worsley Building, which it shares with the Leeds School of Medicine, in July 1978. The Worsley Building was designed by the Building Design Partnership and officially opened by the Duke of Kent in March 1979.

There will also be a range of games and activities for children and families!
