Hospital Dentistry
Hospital dentistry combines medical and dental specialties to provide comprehensive care for our patients. Our dental specialists are trained to treat patients with medical conditions that make treatment outside of a hospital difficult.
We are one of only three hospital dentistry programs in Michigan. When you come to us for treatment, you’ll be in the expert hands of skilled hospital dental specialists.
What is hospital dentistry?
Hospital dentists practice a unique type of medicine. They often treat patients who are too sick or medically compromised to see a general dentist.
Our hospital dentistry program provides advanced care for patients with complex medical and dental needs, including those who are:
- Pre- and post-organ transplant
- Immune compromised
- Undergoing head and neck cancer treatment, including chemotherapy, radiation and surgery
- Getting treatment for blood or other types of cancer
In addition, our hospital dentists are available to treat oral trauma in the emergency department.
