Dental Camp

The Dental camp was a huge success and a phenomenal experience. The camp started at 12pm and it consisted of three main stations. One of the stations included the Registration area. Here, the residents were asked their name, age and their chief complaints after which they were sent to the screening station. At the screening station, the children were monitored for any dental caries and toothaches that were bothering them. If any of the children required further treatment, they were sent to the final station where a dental chair was set up to do some minor tooth cleaning. After the children rotated through each station, they were each given toothbrushes and toothpastes so that they could understand the importance of proper oral hygiene and help maintain it as well.

All in all the process went smoothly thanks to the fact that the dentists were well organized and the ushers who helped accompany the children from one station to the other. I would like to personally thank both of them for maintaining order within the camp and helping us make this project a successful one. I would also like to thank Dr. Shivakumar for not only displaying his strong leadership skills, but providing quality service to the people of the community. I look forward to conducting our next medical camp in the near future and seeing more new faces come out to help the people of Ramavaram. Until then, keep up of the good work folks!
