DSU Dental Hygiene Program to Hold Free Sealant Event
DSU Dental Hygiene Program to Hold Free Sealant Event
Wednesday, January 14th, 2015
Dixie State University's Dental Hygiene program will host a special evening dental sealant community service event on Thursday, January 22, from 5-8 p.m., at the Dr. Mervyn and Sue Cox Dental Hygiene Clinic. The clinic is on the first floor of the DSU Russell C. Taylor Health Science Center, located on the Dixie Regional Medical Center's River Road campus at 1526 East Medical Center Drive.
The event is geared toward providing free sealants to Washington County children up to age 18 with permanent teeth. Sealants are a protective coating which prevent permanent teeth from developing cavities. This is the first time the event will be held during the evening hours as program administrators wanted to accommodate families who could not make it earlier in the day.
For more information on the DSU's free sealant program for children, please contact Assistant Professor Sandy Wilson at 435-879-4902, or to find out more about DSU's Dental Hygiene program, please visit www.utahtech.edu/health/dental.
