Roane State Dental Clinic offering free cleanings for kids

Free dental cleanings for children ages 4 to 12 are being offered through the end of March at the Roane State Dental Hygiene Clinic.

The clinic is on the first floor of the Coffey/McNally Building on Roane State’s Oak Ridge Branch Campus, 701 Briarcliff Ave.

The free procedures include teeth cleaning, all necessary dental X-rays, and a fluoride treatment.

The clinic is open from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and from 8 a.m. - noon Fridays during the spring semester.

The free cleanings for children are only offered during the months of February and March.

Availability is limited due to demand, so parents and caregivers are encouraged to book quickly.

Anyone interested in more information or making an appointment for a child should call the dental clinic during normal operating hours at 865-481-2016.

The dental hygiene clinic also offers cleanings, sealants and teeth whitening for adults.

Available services and patient costs are listed online. Please note that the clinic is closed from May through August each year.
