Dental Hygiene Clinic
Dental Hygiene Clinic
Our Foothill College Dental Hygiene Clinic provides patient services as a learning experience for our Dental Hygiene students — under supervision of a licensed dentist and registered dental hygiene instructors.
Because services are performed by students, your appointment will require more time than in a private dental office.
You will receive thorough and complete care as instructors evaluate all procedures, with support documentation for your particular dental hygiene needs.
Student operators receive a grade for each appointment. You are a part of their learning experience!
