* Our Educational Dental Hygiene Clinic operates in the Fall and Spring semesters only, according to the CityTech Academic Calendar. Our clinic is closed in January and in the Summer (from about mid-May to beginning of September).

Thank you for visiting our City Tech Dental Hygiene Clinic page!

If you would like to schedule a dental hygiene appointment, please call us at 718-260-5074 or email us at dentalhygiene@citytech.cuny.edu. Please note: our clinic receptionist's availability varies from Monday to Saturday, so please leave us a voicemail and we will return your call.

Dear Patients: 

• Please remember: the NYCCT Dental Hygiene clinic is an educational clinic. Students are supervised and evaluated by faculty as they proceed through the patient assessment and treatment, and develop their skills.
• Our educational program and Dental Hygiene Care clinic are inclusive learning environments welcoming to all patients and students.
• As a diverse, multilingual campus, our students speak many languages and we will attempt to match you with a student speaking your language, if possible. Please inform our clinic receptionist when making your appointment.
• Once you are assigned to the student-clinician, that assignment is final and you cannot request to be seen by a different student. However, depending on the educational needs of the students, we may ask you to be seen by another student-clinician and this transfer will only be done with your agreement.
• Our patients are expected to be in clinic for about 3 hours each visit.
• Multiple re-visit appointments may be required to complete your Dental Hygiene care, depending on the difficulty of the case and any additional assessments necessary.
• Additional assessments, such as x-rays, may be needed to determine if your care can be completed in our Dental Hygiene clinic. 
• If the patient’s medical or dental/periodontal condition is determined too complex for dental hygiene care in an educational setting, we will provide the referral and a comprehensive list of dental treatment facilities.
• Medical consultation and medical clearance may be required to ensure the safety of your treatment in our clinic. 
• Please make sure to arrive on time for your appointments. Arriving late or missing the appointment impedes the students’ educational progress.
• Please note: patients who arrive late by more than 30 minutes or miss their appointments 2 times, will not be re-appointed. A referral for care and a comprehensive list of dental facilities will be provided.
• NEW patients who miss their initial appointment without notifying the student or the clinic receptionist, will not be appointed again. Please notify us if you can not keep your appointment with us as soon as possible by contacting your assigned student or our clinic at 718-260-5074 or dentalhygiene@citytech.cuny.edu
• Upon completion of dental hygiene care, patients will be informed of their recommended recare interval, and they should contact the Dental Hygiene clinic to schedule the next recare appointment.

Providing dental hygiene care in a safe environment has always been our priority. Our implemented infection control protocols continue to follow recommended CDC and ADA/ADHA guidelines. Face coverings while on campus are optional and if this changes, you will be informed about the face mask requirement when you will be scheduling your appointment with us. 
We hope to see you soon in our clinic!
