The Augusta University Dental Associates' team of more than 60 dentists represent every dental specialty. As part of the state’s dental college, they offer a range of services, including complex procedures not available at other local practices.
The Dental College of Georgia at Augusta University is a teaching institution and we are pleased you chose us for your dental care home. Our goals are to teach dental students, provide quality dental care for our patients, and research health issues that will keep our profession in the forefront of scientific knowledge. We offer three types of clinical care for our patients:
• Faculty practice clinic - Faculty members, including general dentists and specialists, provide direct patient care in an educational-practice setting. Fees are comparable to those in private practices in our area. To schedule an appointment with a Dental Associates dentist, call 706-721-2696.
• Resident clinics - Residents are licensed dentists who are continuing their training in a specialty program. Care is provided under the supervision of experienced and certified, specialty clinical faculty. Patients whose treatment may be too complex or time-consuming for a dental student may be offered the opportunity to be treated by a resident. The fees for treatment by a resident are higher than those charged in the student clinic, but less than you might expect to pay elsewhere. The care provided by a resident will generally take less time than with our dental students.
• Student clinics - If your needs can be resolved in a student teaching program and if your schedule will allow you to be here for extended appointments, we would like to accept you for treatment. This option is the least costly financially, but is the most costly in time consumption.
