SUPERIOR, WI (KDAL) – In a major step to expanding access to dental training across northwest Wisconsin, Northwood Technical College held a ribbon cutting for its new Mobile Dental Lab at its Superior campus.
The lab was developed to meet the growing need for skilled dental professionals in rural areas and can be moved to various communities on an interim basis.
The mobile unit is equipped with three fully functional dental operating rooms, a radiography lab and dedicated work space for students.
The demand for dental assistants is expected to rise by 3.4 percent over the next six years across Northwood Tech’s 11 county district.
