This is a brief examination by a faculty member to determine if the patient's needs are compatible with the educational needs of our student body. Any necessary x-rays will usually be taken at this appointment.
All fees are due at the time service is provided.
Patients who are not accepted into the student-dentist clinics may be referred to faculty practice, a specialty program, or outside private practice if they desire. X-rays and records will be transferred at patient request. Once the screening examination is completed, the treatment needs of the patient are entered into our computerized file. An appropriate student, if available, is assigned to care for that patient. Once assignment is made, the student will contact the patient and arrange for an appointment to develop a detailed treatment plan and begin treatment.
