Stu-Dent For NYU Students

What is Stu-Dent?
The Stu-Dent plan offered by New York University College of Dentistry provides quality, hassle-free dental services to restore and maintain your teeth and gums – at a time in your life when it is critical to do so. We provide treatment at convenient times and in a convenient location, making it easy to fit dental care into your busy schedule. And our low enrollment fee is less than it would cost to visit us just once for a check-up, cleaning & x-ray.

Services Covered by the Stu-Dent Plan

NYU students enrolled in the Stu-Dent Plan will be treated by graduating D.D.S. and dental hygiene students, overseen by licensed dental faculty members, in our state-of-the-art, NYU Dental Faculty Practice located at 418 Lafayette Street, Suite 350, between Astor Place and East Fourth Street. The following dental services are covered by Stu-Dent:

    Diagnostic Care
    • Semiannual oral examinations
    • X-rays needed to support Stu-Dent services
    Restorative Treatment
    • Routine amalgams (silver fillings)
    • Routine composites (tooth-colored fillings)
    Preventive Care
    • Semiannual prophylaxes (cleanings)
    • Sealants
    • Oral hygiene instruction
    Discounted Fees
    • 20% off most dental services not included in the plan
    • 10% off orthodontic treatment

Because NYU is a teaching institution, some services may take longer to complete than they would in a private dental office. However, our fees are signifcantly lower than those charged by most private dentists.
