"आस - ७" Free Dental Campaign

07 Days FREE DENTAL CAMPAIGN

Eating habits are a major problem nowadays. Lifestyles have changed, needs have altered. People are aware about the latest gadgets but hardly about health trends. Do you remember the last you had your health check up? Well not so shockingly half of the youngsters are not even aware of it. Awareness cannot be spread by setting only policies but it should comprise simpler and short term milestones.

Similar step was taken by our proud NGO member Dr. Nidhi Vyas and her team. She with the support of our Anant Aman Social Welfare Society arranged a dental camp dating from 25th Jan 2017 to 31st Jan 2017.It was held at Dental lounge, 1709 Dwarkapuri. A good population of around 500 appeared. It comprised patients of every age from child to aged people. The main aim of this camp was to spread dental awareness. The following points were highlights-

- To brush atleast twice a day to avoid cavity.

- To use a floss to clean mouth regularly.

- Intake of green vegetables and foods should be increased.

- Visit nearby dentist in every six months.

- Avoid sticky foods such as chocolates.

Each patient actively participated and discussed their dental issues. 50-75 children came for the check up and parents were asked for follow up visits. 07 aged patients were keenly observed who didn't had teeths. And were provided with dentures. 

The camp ended up successfully as it left over with smile on the faces of patients and with a feeling of relief that they are alright. The positive feedback of patients foster our belief of continuing such camps that too at mega level. 

Thanks.

Dental camaign Overview -

Dr. Nidhi Vyas and I (Dr. Pooja) checked almost 200 patients in which there were many routine checkup patients, we told them about all the dental problems they were suffering from, if not cured or treated they may have to bear painful consequences later on... We diagnosed and treated almost 5 to 8 patients of disimpaction (wisdom tooth extraction). We did almost 150 patients of full oral mouth prophylaxis (scaling). We did almost 40 patients of RCT (Root Canal Treatment) and cap placement in-fact multiple bridges placement also done. We started 2 patients of denture which will be continued after camp also. We also diagnosed 2 cancer patients which will be treated by specialist.

Thanks to Anant Aman Social Welfare Society for such encouragement and help that they gave. Thanks to all team members of our Ngo Hemant sir, Atul Dwivedi, Devendra Pandey, Sarang Rajderkar, Vidit Pathak for all help and coordination.

Dental Checkup of Patients. Diagnosing the dental problems.

ADVISE to General Public..

These days people are really suffering more from dental problems and so we can say that awareness is increasing day by day.

People should not neglect their dental problems it may lead to such diseases that it’s difficult for a person to even chew food nicely.

So please don't be ignorant and get yourself into problem. In camp also and normally also we heard some myths that if u get your teeth extracted, it leads to cancer or if you go for full mouth oral prophylaxis (scaling) it would lead to loosening of teeth. Such things are absolutely wrong. So please don't be ignorant, don't believe in such myths and get yourself checked in every six months. Brush twice with proper technique. Change your toothbrush in every 3 months.... So at last I wish u all have a happy and healthy smile.
