On World Oral Health Day, we celebrate the outstanding work of the DCMC Dental Clinic

Starting in 2006, dental care was the very first health service DCMC offered. Since then, the dental clinic has become a shining star in Tanzania and the forerunner for promoting oral health throughout the Dodoma region. The majority of people in Tanzania have never been to a dentist in their life, which unfortunately means extractions are still the number one procedure at the dental clinic. Through its excellent clinic and dedicated outreach programs -- and with your generous support -- thousands of Tanzanians, especially young children, are being educated every day on the importance of regular dental checkups and caring for their teeth.

The patient ward is open and in use! With more patients coming every day, the staff are so glad to be able to accomodate more people who need overnight care. Now that building #2 is complete, we turn toward the next... a surgery building in the building shell to the left. ...

In January, the DCMC eye clinic staff, along with several visiting medical volunteers, screened 1500 kids and 200 adults for vision tests in rural villages. Community Health Outreach missions, like this one, bring healthcare to places where it's needed most, rural villages.
