Dean's Message

Welcome to the dent25 Silver Jubilee website of the Faculty of Dentistry at The University of Hong Kong!

The HKU Faculty of Dentistry celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2007 and we are marking this important milestone in our history by holding a year-long programme of exciting dent25 Silver Jubilee events, starting in November 2006 with a Silver Jubilee Kick-off Concert and culminating in November 2007 with the dent25 Congress and Banquet. This website will keep you informed of all the dent25 Silver Jubilee events taking place throughout the year.

We sincerely hope that you will join us in our festivities during this special time. We extend a particularly warm invitation to Faculty alumni across the globe to take advantage of this memorable occasion to return to their alma mater with a great sense of pride and renewed interest in Hong Kong's only dental school.

Our dent25 Silver Jubilee year will give all alumni, students, past and current staff, benefactors, partners, and friends of the Faculty an opportunity to acknowledge the strong foundation laid by our predecessors and to look forward to the next 25 years of serving the people of Hong Kong and the region, by advancing their oral health and well-being through excellence in learning, discovery, patient care, and engagement.

Join us as we honour the past and celebrate the future of the HKU Faculty of Dentistry!
