Minnesota State University has opened its new dental teaching clinic.
The teaching clinic will enable students who will be the first and only advanced dental therapists in the U.S., to provide low-cost dental care for underserved community members as the students complete required clinical hours for their degree and licensure.
Major funding for the clinic has been provided by Dental Dental of Minnesota Trust and the Henry Schein Cares Foundation. Additional supporters include 3M, the American Dental Hygienists’ Association, Colgate, the Dental Trade Alliance Foundation, the Hardenbergh Foundation, Jean and Bruce Johnson, the Minnesota Department of Health, and the United Way.
