Central Piedmont Community College, Charlotte, NC Dr. Debra Jennings obtained her DMD from the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. With a 21-year experience at Trident Technical College, she taught in the Dental Hygiene and Expanded Duty Dental Assistant programs. During this time she also taught a clinical course to first-year dental students at MUSC to enhance their knowledge of four-handed dentistry. Before attending the MUSC, Dr. Jennings earned dual degrees from the University of South Carolina in archeology/criminal justice and biology/chemistry. Her 30-plus years of practical experience in the dental field runs the gamut from dental hygiene to dentistry.
