About Comprehensive Care:
Student dentists in the Doctor of Dental Medicine program are looking for patients who require at least 3 procedures to be treated: fillings, root canals, crowns, bridges, and dentures. If you think that you may require enough work for our student dentists then you can request a screening appointment for comprehensive care.
Screening is only a visual look in your mouth to confirm that you require enough dental work. No treatment is done during the screening appointment. This appointment will take approximately one hour. Screening times for Term 1 (Aug-Dec) are as follows: Monday PM; Tuesday AM & PM; Thursday PM; and Friday PM.
If you meet the requirements and are accepted, you will be charged a $20.00 screening fee. From this point you will be placed on a wait list to be assigned to a dental student. The wait can be one to two months due to the high volume of patients.
