August 2011 University of Michigan Dental Brigade

Start Date: Aug 1, 2011 11:00 PM
End Date: Aug 7, 2011 11:00 PM

Dental Brigade volunteers provide urgent and preventive dental services in communities with limited access to healthcare. Each of our community partners receives a brigade every 3 to 4 months where hundreds of patients are treated with fillings, cleanings and extractions, and are given dental hygiene workshops. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up to insure any dental procedures were successful.
