I have obtained  a valuable experience in public health through active participation in local community events (Caring Hands, Give Kids a Smile, school screenings, educational presentations to the community).

Caring Hands

In November 2024, I was able to participate  in community event called "Caring Hands." Hosted at the Eugene Fairgrounds, the event offered free dental cleanings to individuals without insurance or access to affordable dental care. It was meaningful to me to make a positive impact in the community and work in unusual environment. One of my patient was invited to the LCC Dental Clinic for continuing treatment. Take a look at the photos below  from this day.

Give Kids a Smile

On March 1, 2025, our class provided free dental services to 40 children including x-rays, prophy, fluoride varnish application, sealant placements. We were happy to make a positive impact by improving the oral health of kids without dental insurance and giving essential oral hygiene instructions. Below the pictures from that day.
