The Periodontics Graduate Program at Indiana University is a 35 month program that offers a Master's of Science in Dentistry (MSD) Degree and a Certificate in Periodontics. Students also have a minor course of study, usually in Oral Pathology. The curriculum has been developed so that on completion the student will have attained the following:

• Competence in all diagnostic, preventive and treatment procedures currently employed in periodontics. 
• The didactic knowledge, as well as the diagnostic, treatment, and maintenance skills necessary for successful completion of the American Board of Periodontology examination. 
• Successful completion of all requirements for the Master of Science in Dentistry (MSD) and the Clinical Certificate in Periodontics. 
• The knowledge and skills necessary for successful clinical practice, or a position in academics or research. 
• Completion of requirements for Light Parenteral Conscious Sedation (IV sedation)

Especially we endeavor to teach our students the latest clinical procedures, and to provide them with state of the art technology. In addition to implantology and light conscious sedation, we teach sinus lifts, ridge augmentation, advanced cardiac life support, and microbial and genetic testing. We have several implant systems, and a computer program for reading digitalized CT scans and treatment planing implant patients. We  have two surgical microscopes which are of tremendous value in periodontal surgery, especially regenerative surgery
