JULY 2023
Our July 2023 Mission was challenging as we did not have an American dentist or hygienist, however, we did have an excellent dental student and a Honduran team of dentists who graciously traveled to our location so we could provide care to those in need. We saw patients in the clinic and visited three area schools. We ended the week with a visit to the Mayan ruins.
SEPTEMBER 2022
In September 2022, we finally returned to Honduras! This year four Honduran dentists joined with our American team to provide free dental care in the clinic. Again this year we returned to the schools to provide oral hygiene instruction and fluoride treatments to over 250 school children. More photos coming soon.
MARCH 2020
Another successful dental mission! In March we were joined by Dr. Forrest Bowen and his daughter Elizabeth. Dr Bowen, with his calm and gentle nature, was especially good with our young patients in the clinic and at the schools. Elizabeth worked tirelessly and jumped right in, always willing to do anything asked of her! Dr. Oscar was also with us for the week and we appreciate his dedication year after year. Big news! Maritza Urbina, who has been volunteering with us for several years, is now Dr. Maritza. We congratulate her and are so happy to have her working with us during our mission weeks. We added another school to our school outreach program, increasing the number of children we are educating on the importance of good dental hygiene and protecting with fluoride. With the help of donations from individuals and the Henry Schein Foundation, we were able to supply every patient with a toothbrush, toothpaste, and floss.
