The Dental Hygiene Clinic at Macomb 社区 大学 now open and accepting patients

Macomb County’s only dental hygiene clinic to offer low-cost preventative dental care

The Dental Hygiene Clinic at Macomb 社区 大学 is now open and accepting patients, providing low-cost preventative dental care to community residents.

All services are performed by Macomb dental hygiene students under the direct supervision of a licensed dentist and registered dental hygienist.  Students gain invaluable real-world experience working with patients while community members gain access to a wide range of low-cost services.  

“The Dental Hygiene Clinic of Macomb 社区 大学 offers the community safe, exceptional dental care, performed by trained professionals at a reasonable cost,” said Barbara Ellis, 副院长, 口腔科学, Macomb 社区 大学. “This gives our community the opportunity to care for one of the most neglected parts of their health, their dental health. It removes financial obstacles to basic dental care.”

Services available at Macomb’s clinic include dental cleanings, x射线, fluoride treatments, athletic guards, teeth whitening, sealants and gum disease treatments.  Emergency or general dentistry procedures such as root canals, 馅料, tooth extractions, implants or dentures are not available from the clinic. However, patients will be provided with a referral to a dentist if necessary. Those requiring further care than what is offered at the Macomb clinic who need financial assistance to support additional needed services will be referred to the nonprofit MyCare Health Center in Centerline for further follow-up.

Pricing for the dental services provided at Macomb’s clinic are below current market rates. For example, an adult dental cleaning is $30 and for a child age three to 14 $20. Additional discounts for senior citizens, military veterans and Macomb students, family members and employees are available. x射线 run from $2 for a single X-ray to $25 for a full-mouth Xray.
