On the 19th February 2017 I will be flying out to Kangera Region in Tanzania to assist in helping provide Emergency Dental care and Train the local health workers Oral hygiene advise to pass onto the families in the local villages.

We do this by strengthening local healthcare systems – specifically by training local healthcare workers in the provision of emergency dental treatment. Oral disease, infection and chronic pain desperately need to be addressed in these communities to enable people to work, attend school and care for their families. Our sustainable training model passes skills into local communities to provide long-term lasting change by enabling local health workers. Initially we have developed our programme in rural Tanzania, and our long term plan is to roll this training out to any country where there is a need.
