Dr Vabitha Shetty and Dr Meghana Bhandary from the Department coordinated with the school staff to set up the screening zones in the space provided. The postgraduate students explained the importance of oral health awareness, provided a demonstration on ideal brushing techniques and emphasized the need for regular dental check-ups to the students.
10 doctors and 4 staff members, from the Department, were assigned to the screening zones and the oral health check-ups were done.
A total of 80 patients were screened at the camp. Each patient was provided with instructions and further guidance on other treatments which were required. Those patients who needed treatment were referred to A.B. Shetty Memorial Institute of Dental Sciences. Sterilization and disinfection protocols were maintained.
