Midmark Showcases New
Dental Health Clinic
State-of-the-art facility provides unique teaching environment for
dental hygienists
DAYTON, Ohio, Oct. 26, 2017 — Midmark Corp., a leading provider of
medical, dental and veterinary equipment and technologies, recently
held an open house to showcase the new Midmark Dental Health Clinic at
Sinclair Community College. The facility, which includes
state-of-the-art equipment and furnishings from Midmark, provides a
unique teaching environment for dental hygiene students and a valuable
health service to the Dayton community.
Located at Sinclair’s Ned J. Sifferlen Health Sciences Center, the new
facility is a fully functional dental hygiene clinic providing low-cost
exams, cleanings and more to the public, as well as a teaching facility
focused on training students enrolled in the college’s Dental Hygiene
Program. Annually, the Midmark Dental Health Clinic provides close to
$500,000 of patient care to approximately 1,500 uninsured or
underinsured children and adults, including senior citizens and the
region’s military veterans. Now, with the state-of-the-art
equipment and furnishings provided by Midmark, Sinclair is expecting to
grow those numbers by approximately 20 percent.
“We are so fortunate to have such a committed partner in Midmark,” said
Sinclair President Steve Johnson. “Midmark shares our mission to
prepare the region's future workforce with the highest quality
equipment. In addition, Midmark’s partnership is helping Sinclair
provide more healthcare services to the region’s dental patients in
this expanded Dental Health Clinic.”
The Midmark Dental Health Clinic contains 25 dental stations outfitted
with the latest dental equipment. Midmark worked closely with
representatives of Sinclair to design the stations and outfit them with
the equipment and technology needed to provide quality dental care to
patients and give students the hands-on training they need to succeed
in dental hygiene. Each station features a Midmark Elevance Dental
Chair, delivery unit, LED lighting and other equipment.
John Baumann, CEO of Midmark, was on-hand to welcome guests during the
open house on October 25.
“We are extremely honored to work with Sinclair and be a part of this
dental health clinic that exemplifies our commitment to the region and
the future of dentistry,” said Baumann. “By building each dental
station with the latest dental equipment and most up-to-date
technology, we are helping ensure the dental hygiene students who walk
through these doors are prepared to deliver high quality care and
improved outcomes.”
