Portable Dental Equipment

To help communities and organizations promote public dental health activities, the Oral Health Program offers portable dental equipment for use by hygienists and/or dentists who wish to do outreach in their community. The portable equipment set consists of patient chair, dentist stool, light, air-compressor and portable dental unit. The portable dental unit has a three-way (air, water and mist) syringe, high and low speed drill, and high and low volume suction. If you are interested in borrowing the equipment call the site nearest you from the list below (if you are in the Jefferson City area call 800-891-7415). There is no fee for equipment use but transport of the equipment is the responsibility of the borrower. Someone at the site will instruct you on set-up and have you fill out a half-page form. On return you will be asked to supply some information on equipment use.
