Marquette University SCHOOL OF DENTISTRY
125th Anniversary
The story of the Marquette University School of Dentistry is one of esteemed leaders and educators who have shaped their field, students steeped in clinical training and well prepared for professional success, and a shared commitment, in the Jesuit tradition, to serving others.
The school’s longest-serving dean to date was Dr. Henry Banzhaf, a prominent Wisconsin dentist who “headed practically every dental educational and professional group in the country,” wrote former faculty member Dr. Peter Jacobsohn in 1994.
