COVID-19 alert

Marquette University School of Dentistry is committed to protecting the health, safety, and well-being of our students, faculty, staff, and visitors. We are carefully monitoring the developments related to the Coronavirus outbreak.

Nevertheless, COVID-19 is a highly contagious virus and the danger it can pose to vulnerable populations demands that we take precautions to protect all members of our Marquette community.

Call (414) 288-6790, Monday through Friday between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to speak with a representative or schedule your initial screening consultation. Patients of record with a dental emergency can contact their assigned student or the group coordinator.

Current patients that have an emergency outside of regular business hours may contact our After-Hours emergency service at (262) 521-4997.

Emergency walk-in service is available for people in the community who need emergency care. Patients may arrive after 8 a.m. (Monday-Friday) to receive one of the four available times for emergency care. While we will generally see four patients per day, that number may vary depending on our availability.  Appointments will no longer be made for emergency services.

Please note, patients may not enter the building before 8:00 a.m. and may be asked to leave the campus if they attempt to do so.
