COMPLIANCE INFORMATION

Since our first day of operations in September of 2009, MHS Mobile Dental has been in compliance with all state laws and regulations that govern mobile/portabile dental operations in Mississippi.

  • MISSISSIPPI STATE BOARD of DENTAL EXAMINERS​
MHS Mobile Dental, and any on-site portable/mobile dental clinic, has to be approved through MSBDE Regulation 61. Our clinic has been approved through this regulation since our inception. The board oversees all portable/mobile dental activity in Mississippi and uses regular inspections to make sure these type of clinics stay in compliance.

  • MISSISSIPPI MEDICAID
​MHS Mobile Dental, along with any other mobile medical clinic (not just dental), has to be in compliance with MS Medicaid's Mobile Medical Regulation 500 section 5.5. The MS Medicaid office of integrity recently reviewed all forms of mobile dental clinics/programs in Mississippi and MHS was found to be 100% in compliance with this regulation.

  • MS STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH - OFFICE OF DENTAL AND ORAL HEALTH
One of MHS Mobile Dental's primary goals is to provide quality preventative dental care access to children in Mississippi. To assist the MSDH division of Dental and Oral Health in this area, MHS has at times partnered with their office to assist their school-based sealant program in situations where the state was lacking resources to provide requested school-based preventative dental care.We take pride in building relationships and partnerships that help create greater dental access to Mississippi's most under-served children and families.

  • LICENSES & INSURANCE
​Every dentist that works with MHS  carries a current dental license issued by the State of Mississippi and is in good standing with the MS State Board of Dental Examiners. Each dentist also carries current liability/malpractice insurance which is a requirement for every dentist practicing dentistry in the State of Mississippi.

  •  MOBILE - PORTABLE DENTAL EQUIPMENT
All of the dental equipment used on-site by MHS is the most current and state-of-the-art portable dental equipment available. Where possible, MHS also uses disposable instruments and supplies. All of our equipment and operations are regularly inspected and approved by the MS State Board of Dental Examiners.

  • RADIOLOGICAL HEALTH (X-RAYS)
MHS Mobile Dental uses a digital handheld Nomad X-Ray for our bite-wing x-rays.  We use the Nomad digital x-ray system so that we can perform a proper comprehensive exam (Not just a simple screening) while we are on-site. All of our digital x-ray equipment is regularly inspected and approved by the MSDH-Office of Radiological Health.
