Dental
Hygiene Clinics
As
part of its undergraduate programs, the Department operates a Dental
Hygiene clinic open to the general public. Services provided have
a preventive focus and include scaling and cleaning and the assessment
and management of periodontal (gum) problems. Dental X-rays are
also available. Services are provided by students under the direct
supervision of Curtin staff and visiting specialists as required.
The services provided are not a substitute for maintaining regular
checks with your dentist.
Appointment
times are usually approximately 90 minutes. Patients attending pay
a nominal fee to assist with the operation of the clinic. Further
details and appointments can be arranged through the Department's
Secretary on 9346 7882.
