Why it matters for dental

New dental school pipeline may ease future pediatric specialist shortages in Arkansas, but offers no immediate operational or revenue impact for existing practices.

Key points

  • Lyon College School of Dental Medicine partnered with Arkansas Children’s to create an academic pediatric dental clinic focused on both patient care and student training.
  • Dr. Ashley McMillan and Drew Ramey, MPA, named inaugural Medical and Administrative Directors, respectively.
  • The program targets expanded pediatric oral-health access and residency-level training, with no announced enrollment or graduation timeline yet.
