One of the services Asha-Kiran provides for the children of construction workers is Dental checkup and treatment Camps. For the second year in a row, we offered this service at the construction sites we are associated with, where our Day Care Centers also provide daytime shelter, informal schooling and nutrition for children who would otherwise have no access to medical care.
The objective of the camps is to improve the oral health of the children and adults who live in construction communities by providing quality dental care services.
Our one-day dental camps were set up in collaboration with D.Y. Patil Hospital Pimpri-Chinchwad, Pune, for children aged 3-18, as well as for the parents who work and live at the sites. We covered 186 children and adults at Marvel Bounty, Marvel Arco, Marvel Citrin, Cerise, and Cascada developments. All the patients were screened and treated in a well-equipped Mobile Dental Clinic. Depending on each case, treatment consisted of fillings, extractions, or a course of specific medication.
