A T Still University School of dentistry

What A T Still University School of dentistry does

A.T. Still University School of Dentistry comprises two dental schools operating within a 133-year-old non-profit health sciences university: the Arizona School of Dentistry & Oral Health (ASDOH) in Mesa, AZ, and the Missouri School of Dentistry & Oral Health (MOSDOH) in Kirksville, MO. Together they enrolled 597 dental students in Fall 2025 (325 at ASDOH; 272 at MOSDOH) and offer a doctoral DMD degree at each campus, a Master of Science in Orthodontics, a combined DMD/MPH dual degree, and an MPH with Dental Emphasis that can be paired with a Dental Public Health Residency Certificate. Clinical education is delivered through affiliated sites including the ASDOH Dental Clinic, the St. Louis Dental Education and Oral Health Center, the Center for Advanced Oral Health (Mesa), and 25+ community health center partnerships that anchor the school's community-based, underserved-populations mission.

The underlying technology stack is conventional educational infrastructure: Canvas and online delivery platforms for distance education, with no proprietary AI, data, or platform product disclosed. Revenue is generated almost exclusively through tuition and fees across residential, online, and hybrid formats — a subscription-recurring model with annual billing cadence and program-specific pricing tiers. The customer base is graduate healthcare students seeking professional credentials, plus a secondary segment of licensed professionals seeking continuing education. The institution markets through a content-led website (atsu.edu), social media, campus tours, and student testimonials, and delivers education through three residential campuses plus a 100% online channel (ATSU-CGHS) and clinical rotation partnerships that function as channel partners. The school of dentistry is a sub-unit of A.T. Still University, which also operates five other schools spanning osteopathic medicine, health sciences, and graduate health studies across Missouri, Arizona, and California.
