RVC Dental Hygiene Program seeking patients

The Dental Hygiene Program at Rock Valley College is looking for patients who have not received regular routine dental cleanings.

Patients can receive full oral examinations and professional cleanings for a low cost through the program's clinic. However, because of the clinic's educational nature, patients should expect multiple appointments lasting approximately three and a half hours.

The clinic is also looking for patients between the ages of five and twelve for exams carried out by RVC Dental Hygiene students. All exams include x-rays and fluoride varnish and are supervised by a registered hygienist and dentist.

The cost for the exams range from $38 to $53, but fees can vary based on each child's needs.

The clinic is located at RVC's Stenstrom Center for Career Education at 4151 Samuelson Road. To make an appointment, call 815-921-3235.

Depending on the needs of the students, everyone who calls may not be able to make an appointment.
