The Dental Hygiene Program is Accepting Patients!

We are in need of patients for preventive services who:

  • Are age 6 or older
  • Are committed to student learning
  • Have time in their schedule for 3 to 5 appointments
  • Can plan for their appointments to last 3 hours each

Patients accepted for dental hygiene care will receive:

  • A head and neck cancer screening, dental x-rays as needed, a complete dental examination, and a very thorough teeth cleaning
  • Quality care at very affordable prices. The dental hygiene treatment fees are only a fraction of the costs since the clinic is a teaching facility.

All procedures are checked by a licensed dental professional. Our students and faculty will classify each patient to match his/her dental hygiene needs to the student’s educational needs and preparation.

To schedule your initial screening, contact us at (512) 223-5710 or stop by the Health Sciences Building during regular business hours: Eastview Campus, 3101 Webberville Road, Bldg. 8000 Rm. 8162 (across from the campus managers office).

This clinic does not perform fillings, crowns, extractions, braces or other restorative procedures.

Please send diagnostic quality x-rays/images to Austin Community College Dental Hygiene Clinic via either of the following options:

Option 1: Email images to secure server

  1. Images must be in .jpg format.
  2. Patient name must be included.
    • If there is a single image, right click on the image name, select rename, then type in the patient’s full name or
    • If there are many images, they can be placed in a zip file that is named with the patient’s full name.
  3. Email images to [email protected]
