The Dental Clinic at Hawkeye offers low-cost dental services to the public. Our clinic focuses on both preventative dental health and limited restorative needs. Studies show that proper dental care improves your overall health.
The clinic is a supervised learning facility for students in Hawkeye's Dental Hygiene and Dental Assisting programs. Professional faculty oversee all procedures to ensure quality, and a supervising dentist provides screening exams to ensure patients receive comprehensive care through your family dentist.
Your appointments help students complete their graduation requirements, while providing low-cost dental care.
