Fees and payment

  • Dental fees must be paid upon registration.
  • The Student Oral Surgery Clinic accepts payment in the form of cash, check and credit card. No billing or payment arrangements can be made.
  • Please view our accepted Group Insurance plans and Medicaid and Managed Care plans for the Oral Surgery clinic here​.

Patient information

  • Patients for the day are selected by a lottery system at 7 a.m. Monday through Friday.
  • The drawing for both morning and afternoon clinics takes place at 7 a.m., so even if you would prefer to be treated in the afternoon, you must be here for the 7:00 a.m. drawing.

If your problem should occur after 5:00 p.m., on a weekend, or on a date the clinic is closed, you should go to the emergency room at your nearest hospital and ask for the dentist on call. Please bring a list of all medications you are presently taking and the dosage.

Patients seeking extraction of multiple teeth, third molar/wisdom teeth extraction, IV sedation or any other procedure deemed not to be appropriate for a student will be examined with the aid of an X-ray and will be referred to patient screening for student assignment or the resident oral surgery clinic.

Patients requesting treatment with nitrous oxide sedation will be assessed an additional fee.

Children are not allowed in the clinical area. If you must bring a child under 12, he or she must remain with a responsible adult at all times.
