MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) -

High school students interested in becoming dentists can participate in a free four-day program this summer at West Virginia University.

The WVU School of Dentistry will provide information about dental career opportunities from June 19 through 22 in Morgantown.

The program will enable students to learn about the art and science of dentistry while also strengthening their understanding of the academic skills and personal attributes needed to attend dental school.

Interaction opportunities will be provided with dental faculty and students. There also will be interactive seminars on oral health topics, hands-on workshops and dental laboratory demonstrations.

Applications are due by June 5 and can be obtained by calling (304) 293-5226.
