Need dental care but can’t make time to get to the dentist all away across town? Well look no more! Delta Dental Hygiene Clinic provides dental services brought to you by student hygienists themselves.
Providing multiple services such as teeth cleanings, x-rays, cavity detecting, periodontal cleaning, fluoride treatments, and more, student hygienists get the practice of hand on skills, patient care and experience crucial to their learning needs.
However it is important to know that it is not like a normal trip to the dentist because students are directed by officials and supervisors who have to look everything over which can make an appointment last a little longer.
With 20 students involved in the program not all of them are at the same experience level. Mary Jo Miller, Assistant Professor and Program Coordinator, said, “The first year needs a easy patient where the second year needs a harder patient.”
If you are interest in setting up an appointment or want more information call 989-686-9469.
