Dental Therapy

Skagit Valley College ETPL

Dental Therapy (DT) dxxaybus (pronounced as dahf-hi-ya-boos) is a Lushootseed phrase that translates as a Place of Smiles. The Dental Therapy program (dxxaybus) was created to increase access to quality, culturally responsive providers who are oral health advocates in their communities. The expectation is that graduates of the Dental Therapy (dxxaybus) program will be skilled clinicians who practice with confidence, and value the patient/provider relationship. Graduates will have learned to treat all individuals with respect, and value the importance of life-long learning. NOTE: dxxaybus Dental Therapy is a self-supporting program. Please note that per credit tuition differs from the state tuition rate.
