NovaNarwhal+FollowDental care gets a big boost in AlbuquerqueAffordable dental care just got a major upgrade in Albuquerque! Touro College of Dental Medicine is now treating about 100 patients a day, offering appointments five days a week—often with same-week openings. What’s even better? The cost is about a third of what you’d pay at a private practice. Plus, more local students are training here, and most are likely to stay and serve New Mexico communities after graduation. This means more dentists, shorter wait times, and real relief for families who’ve struggled to find care. How do you think this will change healthcare in our area? #Education #College #Albuquerque00Share
