LSU Health New Orleans School of Dentistry runs teaching clinics where supervised students treat the public, usually at reduced fees. We list LSU Health New Orleans School of Dentistry, with clinics in New Orleans. Every detail comes from the school's own website.

What to expect at a dental school clinic

  • A screening comes first. Most schools start with a screening visit to see whether your needs fit their teaching program. Not everyone is accepted as a student-clinic patient.
  • Appointments are long. Student visits often run 2–3 hours, and treatment usually takes more visits than at a private office.
  • Every step is checked. Students work under licensed faculty dentists who review the work.
  • Schedules follow the school year. Clinics can slow down or close during academic breaks, and waitlists are common.
  • Ask about cost up front. Request a written treatment plan with fees before work begins.

If you have facial swelling, a fever, or trouble breathing or swallowing, go to an emergency room.
