The first appointment consists of an oral health assessment, which includes blood work, x-rays and an oral exam. LSUSD faculty will then review a patient's record to determine if students are able to provide the oral health care required and/or if the treatment offers students the appropriate learning opportunities. Please remember that the School of Dentistry's primary mission is education.

The initial appointment fee can range from $50-$80 and can be paid by cash, personal check, VISA or MASTERCARD. No dental treatment is provided during this examination.
