OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — The UNMC College of Dentistry will celebrate the completion of a $2.6 million renovation of its Omaha dental clinic today.

The facility renovation included expanding the dental clinic from seven dental chairs to 15, including adding multipurpose rooms for special procedures; updating all the dental operatories, adding a conference room, and updating the sterilization lab, reception area and support spaces.

The growth of the dental clinic will allow the College of Dentistry to increase the number of patients they serve as well as accommodate a new residency program. The residency program will now serve as a rotation site for dental and dental hygiene students.
