LSC’s Dental Hygiene Clinic does not provide exams, diagnosis or restorative services. Dental Hygiene Clinic visits are not intended to take the place of a dentist appointment. Supervising dentists for the clinic are on staff for a dental screening and to authorize x-rays, sealants and other expanded functions. If any issue is noticed during the cleaning process, patients are referred to their own dentists. All patients are encouraged to see their dental provider after using the LSC Dental Hygiene Clinic to follow up with a dental exam.
