Dental Clinic

All services provided will cost $25 for adults and $15 for children (10 years or under). This payment covers all appointments to complete your cleaning. Service may include:

• Comprehensive dental hygiene assessment
• Oral health education
• Preventive dental hygiene services
• Dental prophylaxis
• Periodontal assessment
• Radiographs, when indicated
• Fluoride treatments
• Nutritional counseling related to oral health
• Other services appropriate to the student's level of clinical education and within the applicable scope of practice

All services are provided according to the student's clinical level, patient needs, applicable laws and regulations and PHSC Dental Hygiene Program policies.

Patients should be aware that appointments are part of the students' clinical education. Appointments may require additional time compared with a traditional dental office because students are developing and demonstrating clinical competencies under faculty supervision.

Patients may be asked to provide medical and dental history information and participate in an oral health assessment before treatment is provided.

Treatment recommendations and referrals may be made when a patient's needs fall outside the services provided by the Dental Hygiene Clinic.

Clinic hours and availability are subject to change based on the Dental Hygiene Program's academic and clinical schedule.

Fees are subject to change. Please contact the clinic for current pricing and appointment availability.

Dental hygiene services are provided by students under faculty supervision as part of an educational program. Availability of services depends on student clinical requirements, faculty availability, patient needs and the academic calendar.

The Dental Hygiene Clinic does not provide emergency dental care. Patients experiencing a dental emergency should contact a dentist or appropriate health care provider.
