Urgent Dental Care

 

Urgent Care Clinic for Daytime Care

The Urgent Care Clinic serves both new and established patients during the day from 8am to 4pm Monday through Friday (except Tuesday morning) on the first floor of the Dental Clinic Building. You must have an appointment to be seen in the clinic but in most cases same-day appointments are available.

Patients at the Urgent Care emergency Clinic are seen by College of Dental Medicine students, supervised by Dental Medicine faculty.

To schedule an appointment call: 843-876-SMIL(e)
