Oral Health Dentist at Work

Oral_health Dentist_at_work

Dental Therapist Chief Mr. Meshack Gulubane, Senior Dental Mr. Therapist Mmoloki Letebele and Dental Surgen Attendent Ms. Roda Alec visited Nata Village to make sure the community is taking care of their teeth and gums. Over thirty patients were seen by the dental therapist. The dental therapist provided Nata patients with cleaning, fillings, or extractions. The staff will continue to work their way to twenty three more villages that are under the Tutume Sub District. This great service is provided by the The Department of Public Health to people who cannot afford to pay for their services. Tutume Sub District provided the Dental Therapist with a motor home vehicle to reach villages deep in the out back.

Comments

Thank you for the very informative story on the oral health outreach services in Nata village.There are few corrections which has to be made on the story which as follows,

*the heading should read "Dental therapists at work not Dentists".

*The mobile dental unit truck was supplied by Oral health Division in the ministry of health not Tutume sub district.

Thank You

Meshack Gulubane
Chief Dental Therapist.

It's really great to have dentists on the road to be able to serve the community.

Thank you for sharing. Its nice to know that there are some people who are willing to work for, and give their services for free to those less fortunate people who can't afford to go to dentist for their dental necessities. You guys deserve a congratulations for a job well done. Good luck and more power to you guys.
