Loma Linda University School of Dentistry officials plan to host an open house for its Hugh Love Center for Research & Education in Technology on Aug. 22, a university spokesman announced Monday.

"The Hugh Love Center is comprised of six operatories and a three-chair open clinic," Herbert Atienza of Loma Linda University said.

"The 3,000-square-foot Center, with equipment provided by six different manufacturers, will enable qualified students, under faculty supervision, the opportunity to treat patients using the latest in dental technology," Atienza said.

In the coming fall quarter of 2012, fourth-year dental students will treat patients at Hugh Love Center for at least two weeks each, Atienza said.

The center is named for Loma Linda University School of Dentistry alumnus Hugh C. Love, DDS, class of 1961, Atienza said.
