Dental Clinic

A Clinic for Your Dental Needs

LWTech's Dental Clinic provides quality dental care to the general public. The clinic is staffed by students, licensed dentists and hygienists, and certified dental assistants.

New Clinic Patients

To receive services in our dental hygiene or dental assisting program's student clinic, you must be a patient of record. To become a patient of record, you must have a consultation to determine if you qualify for the clinic. Once qualified, a dental hygiene student may appoint you into the clinic.
