Alison's Uganda Update

We have spent a day examining 117 children from 3yrs old to17. 21 needed treatment. Sadly 28 children had had their healthy canine teeth unnecessarily removed by the " witch doctor" before they had grown into the mouth. This usually means " digging " the small partially formed tooth out of the gum with whatever is available.

We will be travelling close to the source of the Nile and camping on an island. From there we will be able to do some more community clinics.
