DENTAL HYGIENE CLINIC

The Dental Hygiene Clinic at Kellogg Community College offers excellent oral health services at affordable rates. Serving the needs of our students and community! All services are provided by student dental hygienists and each patient provides a unique learning experience for our students. Because the clinic is first and foremost a learning institution, the provision of these services requires appointments that are two to four hours in length. Multiple appointments can be expected for those patients needing more involved dental hygiene care. In return for longer appointments, the patient receives thorough, comprehensive dental hygiene care for a nominal fee.

Services include: review of medical and dental health history; blood pressure screening; oral cancer screening; oral health instruction; dental charting; periodontal assessment; non-surgical periodontal therapy including scaling and root planning, oral irrigation and chemo-therapeutic agents when needed; oral prophylaxis; fluoride therapies; sealants; nutritional counseling; tobacco cessation program; radiographs; athletic mouth protectors; and referrals for additional care.

Services are limited to dental hygiene and we recommend that all patients see a dentist after they leave our clinic.
