Squeaky Clean Teeth

On the 4th of July, a group of 25 kids (and their mothers) from Mololoa loaded onto a bus to go to a dental clinic sponsored by Terry Reeves' group. 9 group members worked alongside 5 Honduran dentists and assistants.



To start out the process, one of the Honduran dentists spent 20 minutes with the children explaining how to properly clean their teeth. Then, all the children were given a toothbrush and went outside to brush with the dentist guiding their movements.

Once back inside the building, the dentists began to call children back to have their teeth cleaned in one of the four stations available. While the other children waited two members of Terry´s group sang and played to keep them occupied.

If their was a serious cavity, then unfortunately teeth were pulled. We had a few cryers, but overall it went very well.
