Bike 4 Cambodia has run our dental program since 2012. The program consists of 2 parts, one is our dental clinic where we have a Cambodian dentist working to treat Cambodian primary students from 7 local schools. The second part is the daily toothbrushing in the seven schools. Each day we have 3300 students brushing their teeth - all overseen by our Cambodian toothbrush managers. The project has proven very effective over time and our Cambodian dentist as well as our Swedish Dentist volunteers has seen a dramatic improvement in the kids dental health.
As part of it all our Cambodian dentist also visits all the schools and does fluoride treatment twice a year. This gives our small friends an extra doze of protection for their teeth.
