Students are responsible for obtaining the appropriate number and type of patients necessary to successfully complete the clinical component of the program.

The St. Clair College Dental Clinic recall system and our dental receptionist will help with this endeavor, but the onus for patient recruitment is the student's responsibility.

Our patient pool is large, but students must:

1. Book their own patients
2. Screen them
3. Participate in recruitment activities

Community Patient based Clinical begins in February and runs until mid-June.

Contact the St. Clair College Dental Clinic Receptionist for Patient contact information.
