Dental Camps

Dr. Jeff Phillips has done several dental camps in the last two weeks.  Yesterday we did one at Simpani where he treated a lot of NEF children.  He saw about 80 patients there, children and mothers.  The children are so brave about having teeth pulled and seldom cry.   He is returning to Kathmandu today where he will do two more camps before returning home next Wednesday.  It is an excellent service as nearly all these patients have never seen a dentist before except for NEF children who have been seen through us in previous years.  This is Manu being treated with his grandmother looking on.  Manu has a tough life and his teeth were in bad condition.  Also Dr. Jeff, Momta his assistant and a blind brother of an NEF child.
