JCCC Dental Hygiene Program
| The Johnson County Community College (JCCC) Dental Hygiene Program began an expansion |
| project in 2008. The project was part of a larger facilities renovation to design a state-of-the-art |
| clinical facility for dental hygienists, which meets industry standards for safety, efficiency and |
| ergonomic function. The project increased the annual class size from 26 to 30 students; expanded |
| radiology laboratory opportunities; increased the service capacity of the Dental Hygiene Clinic; and |
| expanded preventative services for uninsured individuals. |
| |
| Delta Dental of Kansas provided a $125,000 grant in 2008. The grant equipped four operatories, |
| eight radiology units and consoles, purchased state-of-the-art ultrasonic sterilization equipment and |
| purchased 2,608 toothbrush kits for distribution at community health fair presentations. |
