Student Oral Surgery Clinic

Patients for the day are selected by a lottery system at 7:00 am (Monday-Friday). If you prefer to be treated in the afternoon, you must be here for the 7:00 am drawing.


The Student Oral Surgery Clinic is a walk-in facility that provides urgent care for adult patients in pain. Minors between the ages of 13 and 17 years old can also be seen here when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. If you have a toothache or facial swelling, you may be treated at the Student Oral Surgery Clinic even if you are not a current patient at the college’s clinics.
