Dental Clinic



In Ghana, there are 400 dentists for a population of 22 million. Dental Hygenists are few and preventive care doesn't really exist. People here will suffer for years with an aching tooth because there is no dentist available or lack of funds. Mercy Ships sets up a dental clinic at a nearby school for the duration of the outreach. Volunteer Dentists and Dental Assistants from all over the world come here to relieve the pain and suffering that these people have. Dental education is also given while people are waiting to be seen. What a Blessing
