Dental Students Assist with Score 1 Screenings

UMKC School of Dentistry has been involved with Score 1 since 2000. This year we screened over 13,000 kids in 44 schools in the KCMO, KCKS, Independence, Mo., and Hickman Mills, Mo., school districts. All 109 D-3 students participated in the screenings providing help to the medical students from Kansas City University College of Medicine as they learn how to evaluate oral health in children. This also provides hands-on experience for our Inter-professional Education Collaboration dental students. View photos from the event.
