The University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Dentistry, located
in Lincoln, invites the public to its free, annual Dental Museum open house,
September 4-8, at which the museum puts its entire collection on display.
The museum sports one of the largest regional collections of historical
dental equipment and artifacts dating from 1850s.
The UNMC College of Dentistry is located at 40th & Holdrege
Streets on the East Campus of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
This year, the museum will display its largest collection ever with
the help of donors, said Stan Harn, Ph.D., UNMC College of Dentistry professor
of oral biology and curator of the museum. We expect the open house to
be the largest display ever. We have purchased a number of items from other
museums.
The museum will be open during the following dates and times:
Sept. 4 — 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Sept. 5 and 6, from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Sept. 7 — 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
