Delta Dental of Tennessee and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, TN, recently celebrated the reopening of the dental clinic located inside the hospital's Patient Care Center.
The renovated, full-service clinic features a new floor plan that provides a more patient-friendly facility and accommodates new equipment donated to the clinic by Henry Schein and Midmark, according to the company.
Delta Dental contributed $200,000 to fund the construction.
The improved facilities will cater to the needs of St. Jude's patients, offering various dental procedures often required prior to medical or surgical treatment in the hospital. Often health complications prevent these patients from leaving the St. Jude campus, making the dental clinic an essential part of their care, Delta Dental noted.
