A-B Tech Allied Dental Clinic offers great savings on dental treatment.  Our clinic patients are selected through a screening process by our instructors according to the semester requirements for the teaching clinic. The services provided are routine dental cleaning, periodontal (deep) cleaning, flourdie treatments, sealants and digital dental radiographs.  If the demand for appointments exceeds the number available, we can not guarantee all interested persons an appointment. 

Our Dental Hygiene students see patients during each semester.  The patients are selected from a screening process according to the criteria needed each semester. Patients of record will be recalled if appointments times are available but not quranteed a return appointment.

Our Dental Assisting students are in clinic in the spring semester which starts in January each year.  This clinic is available for general dentistry and staffed by Dr. Bob Eldridge and Dental Assisting Instructors. Our dental clinic patients are selected through a screening process by the Dentist or Dental Hygiene instructors according to the semester requirements for the Dental Assisting teaching clinic.  These patients have to be seen in the Dental Hygiene teaching clinic first.

Dental Hygiene (teeth cleaning) including routine and periodontal (deep cleaning) appointments are available each semester.

Your first visit is a 45 minute screening (evaluation) appointment. You will be established with a student and scheduled on another day for your cleaning appointment.  The cleaning appointments are 2 1/2 hours long and could require more than one visit.  The fee for a routine cleaning is $25.00, periodontal (deep cleaning) $40.00, each additional visit is $5.00.  X-ray fees are FMS (full mouth series) $35.00, Panorex $35.00 and BWX (bitewing) $15.00.
