The Tulsa Community College Dental Hygiene Clinic provides only the following dental hygiene services: oral cleanings or non-surgical periodontal therapy depending on the patient’s oral health status; oral health education; x-rays, sealants, local anesthesia, and/or nitrous oxide sedation based on dentist authorization; fluoride treatments; desensitization of teeth; subgingival drug placement; and several other services within the dental hygiene scope of practice. All dental hygiene services are provided by students under the supervision of a licensed dentist and registered dental hygienist. No dental services are provided in the Dental Hygiene Clinic such as: fillings, extractions, orthodontics, prosthetic appliances, etc. These types of services must be secured by the patient through another entity. 

Interested patients must schedule a new patient application appointment by calling (918) 595-7022. The new patient application appointment does not bind the Dental Hygiene Clinic to accept all patients; only patients that are appropriate for dental hygiene care in an educational facility will be accepted. The Dental Hygiene Clinic is located at the Tulsa Community College Metro Campus on the third floor of the Alfred M. Philips Building at 909 S. Boston Avenue, Room MP 300, Tulsa, OK 74119.
