Program Aspects:

Shadowing:

Get up close and personal with the field. Our team helps to arrange times and dates for students to come to the office and shadow dental procedures. Students are encouraged to ask questions and gain as much experience as possible.

Personalized Guidance:

Embrace the uniqueness of your journey. We have partnered with Scrub Hub Inc, a dental non-profit to provide one-on-one mentorship for pre-dental students. Our very own Dr. Gray, founder of Scrub Hub, has multiple years of experience on UCLA’s admission committee and pre-dental mentorship. Her team assists students with developing admission timelines, forming efficient DAT study techniques, and reviewing ASDAS applications and personal statements.

Service Opportunities:

Give back to your community. Tulane Family Dentistry along with Scrub Hub Inc provide pre-dental service opportunities for students to participate in throughout the greater New Orleans area. True fulfillment stems from
a generous heart, and Tulane Family Dentistry believes in paying it forward.

Testimonies

Merlin says, “Dr. Gray and Dr. Shelton have given me more than guidance—they have allowed me to envision my future and actively pursue my dream of becoming a dentist through thoughtful planning, hands-on training, and intentional practice. I’ve had the privilege of witnessing the impact of their work within our community and experiencing firsthand the tact, dignity, and careful consideration that define dentistry as a profession. Every day, I am inspired by the difference they make, and every day, I am reminded of why I chose dentistry. Because of them, I carry honor and pride in my decision to enter dentistry, and I am committed to honoring their legacies as my leader/mentor(s).”
