Respiratory Viruses
If you have been exposed to someone with a respiratory virus or have symptoms such as a cough, fever, sneezing, or runny nose, please call the clinic where your appointment is scheduled. They will let you know if you should come to the clinic for your scheduled appointment or change to a phone or video visit. You may also reschedule for a time when you are feeling better.
If you are seeing a UAMS Health provider to treat a respiratory virus or other contagious condition, please ask for a mask when you check in for your appointment. This is important and will help keep other patients and staff healthy and safe.
About Dental Hygiene Student Clinic
The UAMS Dental Hygiene Student Clinic provides select dental hygiene services while providing clinical experience to students enrolled in the UAMS College of Health Professions dental hygiene degree program. Dental hygiene services are provided by students under the direct supervision of faculty dental hygienists and dentists.
Insurance is not filed in this clinic. All services are provided at a reduced rate and paid at the time of service by the patient.
Because these students are learning to provide good care and are observed by hygiene faculty at each step, you should be available to sit for an extended appointment time.
Services provided in this clinic include:
- Routine cleanings and examinations
- Radiographs (X-rays)
- Other preventative periodontal treatments
- Sealants
Please note that the clinic does not provide restorative services (fillings, crowns, etc.) or tooth extractions.
