    Story

    I am a 4th year dental student at the University of Dundee. In July 2024, I will be spending 4 weeks volunteering in Roxas city in the Philippines with a team of dental students and dentists, where I will provide vital dental care to children and adults of the local communities. I will be working in a hospital, as well as treating the most rural communities on a dental bus. I am currently in the process of developing an oral health comic tailored to Filipino children, which will help me deliver personalised oral health promotion, diet and decay prevention advice. Dental education is important to prevent oral diseases whilst enabling the children to have equal opportunities of developing healthy habits for their future. The Philippines has one of the highest rates of tooth decay in world due to dentistry being greatly under prioritised and underfunded. Any donations will therefore be greatly appreciated and can be put towards supplies for patient treatment, as well as allowing copies of the dental comic to be printed for each child to take home.
