#311 Short-term dental missions 🗓

With Dr Bob Meyer

In this presentation, Dr Bob explores:

  • The need and the opportunities available for short-term dental missions to serve the under-resourced dentally, using it as a door opener for spreading the gospel.
  • Shows how to do quality dental care comfortably and safely in austere environments, transportable in three 50-pound airline checked bags, which can be set up in a few minutes.
  • Acknowledge that dental extractions and fillings generally require no follow-up, minimal medication, and solve acute pain and infection problems immediately.
  • Shares opportunities to train indigenous people to extract teeth in one week, where there is little access to care.
  • Shows how team members benefit from service.
