Between 1992 and 1995, the University’s Dentistry Library transferred the collection of original Dentistry and Dental Hygiene graduating class photographs to the museum.
The museum began the project of digitizing this collection when the graduating class photo displays in the Dentistry Building were being updated in 2009.
A total of 133 School of Dentistry and 69 Dental Hygiene class images were digitized for the museum. Copies of these digital files were sent to the Bentley Historical Library to make them accessible online. Follow these links to read more about and view:
