Bracknell Dentist Dr Teresa well known for
her charity work, has just been granted a special license to
travel to
the remote Rif Mountains region.
Bracknell Dentist Dr Teresa in Morocco last year |
Her mission of mercy departs on
September 29th 2013 for seven hard, gruelling, yet fulfilling days.
The first destination is a remote school in a
fishing village, with 650 children and a high intake of honey, sweet mint tea, and no dental health service - this all contributes to
extreme dental decay. The goal here is to treat 200 kids.
Then on to a second project in
collaboration with Rifcom.org to take a further 150 children out
of daily dental pain. http://www.rifcom.org/
Dr Teresa is usually found treating
patients in her comfortable practice in Binfield, Bracknell surrounded by
modern day dental equipment, running water, and a fabulous support team.
Everything she could ever need.
Cally
Gedge fellow co-founder of the award winning Dental Mavericks charity, who
organises the annual expedition said, “This is our fourth year and this
Moroccan community now relies on UK dentists to rid them from the daily pain of
decayed teeth. There is no free or easy to access dental care.”
Dr Teresa will post updates on our facebook page
whilst she’s in Morocco during the expedition.
Dr Teresa finances her own trip, plus loses revenue whilst away from Appledore.
She has donated a dental wand to assist with pain relief and has had a
charity sale at the clinic for the last 6 months to raise funds.
