The goal of the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery SurgiCenter is to increase access to oral healthcare for low-income and historically underserved populations, according to a Jan. 11 news release from the school.
The 1,800-square-foot surgery center plans to serve more than 150 patients annually and to increase that number as the team expands.
The facility will have a reception area, a pre-op consultation room, three operating rooms, a post-anesthesia recovery unit, a pharmacy/dispensary area and a supply management area.
The school was awarded $350,000 by the Herbst Foundation to build the surgery center.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place September 14-15 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
