UNE Dental Hygiene Clinic cited in New York Times story

The University of New England's Dental Hygiene Clinic on the Portland Campus was used as an example of "How to Manage Dental Costs, With or Without Insurance" in a Sept. 4, 2009 story in the New York Times by Walecia Konrad. The story noted that dental and dental hygiene programs offer affordable care, and the writer interviewed Julie Kingsley of Portland who brings her two children to UNE's Dental Hygiene Clinic for checkups and cleanings, saving hundreds of dollars.
