The Clark College Dental Hygiene Department will host its annual free children’s dental health clinic Feb. 1.
Appointments are available between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. in the Firstenburg Dental Hygiene Education and Care Center in the Health Sciences Building on Clark’s main campus, 1933 Fort Vancouver Way, Vancouver.
“If you have or know any children who would benefit from a free cleaning and exam, this would be a great opportunity for them,” Program Director Kristi Taylor said in a news release.
Clark College’s dental hygiene students will provide free care under the supervision of licensed dental hygienists and dentists. Services will include cleanings, sealants, X-rays, exams, fluoride and select emergency treatments for children ages 4 to 17, regardless of insurance, according to a news release. The clinic will be wheelchair accessible and pediatric dentists will be available to treat children with accommodations.
