2.6 Multidisciplinary Residency Program

A multidisciplinary residency program is offered at five of the McGill teaching hospitals: the Montreal Children's Hospital, the Montreal General Hospital, the Queen Elizabeth Health Complex, the Royal Victoria Hospital, and the Sir Mortimer B. Davis-Jewish General Hospital. Positions are available each year starting July 1.

In order to be considered for a residency position, candidates who have not graduated from high school in the Province of Quebec must have successfully fulfilled the French Language test of the Office de la langue francaise before applying.

Applicants for these positions must submit their applications to the Faculty by September 30 of the previous year. Further details may be obtained by writing to the Multidisciplinary Residency Program at the Faculty of Dentistry, McGill University, 3640 University Street, Montreal QC H3A 2B2 or visiting the Web site at

Applicants must hold a licence to practise dentistry in Quebec or be graduates from an accredited Canadian or American Dental School.

Residents enrolled in the McGill Multidisciplinary Residency program will participate in a Conscious Sedation Program. This course consists of didactic and practical components designed to provide participants with experience in the selection and application of various modalities of intravenous, oral and inhalation conscious sedation. Certification in Advanced Cardiac Life Support as well as an anesthesia rotation are obligatory components of this course. Successful completion of all aspects of this course and documentation of appropriate numbers of cases will qualify interested individuals to sit for an examination leading to certification.
