Health PEI’s new Mobile Dental Clinic to expand access to dental care

Health PEI says its new Mobile Dental clinic is expanding access to dental care across PEI.  The Mobile Dental Clinic will bring vital dental care directly to schools, long-term care homes, community care facilities, shelters and outreach centres.  The rollout of the mobile clinic will take place in phases, beginning with school-based preventative services this summer and in the upcoming fall school year. As operations expand, care will be offered in residential care settings and community outreach centres.  The Mobile Dental Clinic is fully equipped with two treatment rooms, and will be staffed by a team of dentists, dental hygienists, and dental assistants.
