University of Adelaide to open new dental clinic

The University of Adelaide will open its own dental clinic for the local community as part of its School of Dentistry.

Opening in 2016 and operating throughout the year, the clinic will accommodate advanced-level students working under supervision.

The announcement follows intense lobbying by the ADASA to ensure that the school had its own clinic, after the South Australian Government decided that it would put out a tender for "an integrated.public dental service and dental school".
