Two well-known oral health entities, Eastman Dental Center and the dental departments of the University of Rochester Medical Center, merged in 1997 and formed one organization with a mission to improve oral health through caring, discovery, teaching, and learning.

The merger created three separate but linked entities that offer the unique opportunities for the academic and oral health care effort within a major, academic, health care and research center.
