Addressing Oral Health Care (Charles Sturt University Dental and Oral Health Clinics)

Charles Sturt University’s Dental and Oral Health Clinics provide high-quality dental services while training the next generation of oral health professionals. Located across several regional campuses, the clinics deliver preventative and restorative dental care using modern facilities and technologies.
