Dr. Temisanren O.T

Head of Department

BACKGROUND

At inception, there was no department of Child Oral Health as academic members of staff were in the department of Preventive dentistry. The staff strength in the department of Preventive dentistry increased to eight (8) and this brought up the need for a split of the department of Preventive dentistry to ensure compliance with the normal academic structure the worldwide and as recommended by the Nigerian Universities Commission minimum standards. The Senate of the University of Ibadan therefore approved the creation of the department of Child Oral Health in 2004 out of the department of Preventive dentistry and the department became fully operational in August 2005. The Faculty now has five (5) autonomous departments.
