Within the framework of its humanitarian mission and social responsibility, the Oral Diagnosis Branch at the College of Dentistry, in cooperation with the Scientific Affairs Unit and the Voluntary Work Unit, conducted a field visit to Al-Waleed Primary School for Boys, located on the right side of the city of Mosul. The visit aimed to enhance health awareness and to instill a culture of oral and dental health care among primary school pupils.
The visit included the provision of on-site therapeutic services for cases diagnosed during the visit, in addition to delivering simplified educational lectures that addressed correct tooth-cleaning methods, the importance of regular visits to the dentist, and preventive measures against dental caries and periodontal diseases.
The visiting team was also keen to present symbolic gifts to the pupils as a means of support and motivation to encourage the adoption of healthy behaviors, within an interactive environment marked by positivity and a spirit of cooperation.
This initiative comes as an affirmation of the role of the College of Dentistry in community service and its commitment to reaching various areas of the city, particularly the right side, thereby contributing to the development of an aware generation with improved oral health.
