Away from Dental Problems

Away from Dental Problems. Forty inmates of Davao City Main Jail availed free tooth extraction conducted by dentists from Davao City Health Office: Dr. Trinitario Sta Ana IV, Dr. Alan Raymund Galvez, and Dr. Oliver Fuentes last Aug 1, 2016. The Free Dental Clinic is a regular program of the Archdiocesan Commission on Prison Welfare in coordination with dental teams from the Philippine Army, PNP, Davao City Health Office, Davao Dental Association, and volunteer dentists from the private sector. Bad teeth cause not only pain and suffering to inmates but they also bring about other diseases due to germs and infection in the mouth. The next dental clinic will be tomorrow, August 8, 2016 at DCJ-Annex and on Aug 21, 2016 at the ROH Female Jail. Photo shows the dental team from City Health Office and volunteers from ACPW.
