Dental Clinic Coverage Denver Dentists
On Fridays both Dr’s DeLapp cover the dental clinic. Obviously, this is why Friday’s are not available for patients at our Highlands Ranch Dentaloffice. The doctors are not “off” …they are teaching at the dental school. Students from the traditional dental school as well as the International program perform dentistry on patients. The whole spectrum of treatment is performed under their direction a supervision with the exception of root canals and oral surgery. Those dental disciplines are covered by specialist at the school.
Practicing what they “Teach”
The opportunity to network with professors from the University provide great feedback and constantly improve their dental skills. Teaching a subject can reinforce information and the ultimate benefactor form their efforts is their patients (and hopefully the students!).
