On August 27, 2022, the Himdent Foundation conducted a free dental health camp at G.P.S. Chak Chobewala, Dehradun, under its Smiling School Program. Despite the small size of the school—only 13 students and 2 teachers—the camp was a resounding success. Dr. Aditya Vohra delivered an informative lecture, followed by thorough dental check-ups. The day ended with 13 permanent fillings for 7 students, leaving both the children and the staff highly satisfied.
This camp highlights the importance of reaching out to smaller schools through dental outreach programs. In many cases, schools with smaller enrollments are often overlooked, yet the need for dental care in these communities is just as pressing. Every child deserves access to quality healthcare, no matter how remote or small their school may be. By making it a priority to include these schools in its outreach, Himdent Foundation ensures that no child is left behind in the mission for better oral health across rural India.
