Most equipment is brought to the area from Bangkok. The equipment is arranged and is ready the evening before the dental services start. In addition, a poster exibition with health educational material is presented. In a normal day, more than thousand patients are waiting - they have been informed about the project in advance. They are first seen by dentists who identify the main problem in each individual - pictures showing Dr Ratana Serinirach in action.
Most extractions are due to untreated caries.
The clinical work is performed by doctors assisted by local health personnel and by schoolgirls acting as extra nurses. Here the staff from Chulalongkorn has gathered for some joint photos. Special acknowledgement to The Royal Physiographic Society in Lund for supporting DBs participation.
