Washington where he was professor and chair of endodontics. He served in similar positions on the faculties of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston and the University of
Michigan.
"I am honored and thrilled to be returning to BCD," Glickman said prior to his arrival. "I am excited that I will again be working with many of the faculty and staff that I had the pleasure of
working with when I was first here. It is a great feeling to be 'coming home.'"
Glickman's primary goal will be to continue the tradition of excellence in endodontic education and scholarship, both at the predoctoral as well as the graduate level. "With its
re-establishment, it is critical that the Department of Endodontics works in concert with the school at all levels: administration, faculty, staff and students," he said.
Glickman received a master's degree in microbiology from the University of Kentucky in 1975, a dental degree from Ohio State University in 1978, a general practice residency certificate from
the University of Florida in 1979, a master's degree and certificate in endodontics from Northwestern University in 1984, a master's degree in business administration from Southern Methodist University
in 1988 and a law degree from Texas Wesleyan University School of Law in 1994.
A diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics, Glickman also serves the board as director and president. He chairs the Education Affairs Committee of the American Association of Endodontists
and is vice president of the Council of Sections of the American Dental Education Association.
Glickman is a member of the Test Construction Committee of the Joint Commission of National Dental Examiners and a member of the Endodontic Review Committee and consultant for the ADA Joint
Commission on Dental Accreditation. A fellow of both the American College of Dentists and the International College of Dentists, his research interests are in the areas of root canal instrumentation and
obturation of root canal systems.
Glickman is on the editorial boards of the International Endodontic Journal and the endodontics section of Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral Radiology and Endodontics. Glickman serves as section editor of endodontics for Quintessence International. He also has contributed to major texts in endodontics.
"We are fortunate that Dr. Glickman will lead the department as it returns to full department status," said Dr. James S. Cole
(BCD '75), dean of the college. "I want to offer my thanks to the Endodontics Search Committee, chaired by Dr. Susan Hummel, for its effort in conducting this successful search."
