New college hopes to solve Ohio's dentist shortage.

A new dental college, the Bitonte College of Dentistry, is set to open in Ohio in fall 2025 to address the state's dental access and workforce crisis. The college, part of Northeast Ohio Medical University, aims to train students to serve underserved communities in Ohio, where dental shortages are high. With a focus on clinical training and partnerships with Federally Qualified Health Centers, the program seeks to alleviate Ohio's oral health care crisis, which has been identified as a significant unmet health need in the state.
