| Details | Restoring Smiles to Advance Oral Health in Uganda” focuses on improving access to quality dental care and promoting oral health awareness among communities across the country. The initiative seeks to address the high burden of untreated dental conditions such as tooth decay, gum disease, and oral infections, which often go neglected due to limited access to dental services and public awareness. Through outreach programs, school dental screenings, community sensitization, and partnerships with health institutions, the program restores not only healthy smiles but also confidence and overall well-being. It emphasizes prevention through education on proper hygiene practices, regular dental checkups, and affordable treatment options. By integrating oral health into broader public health interventions, “Restoring Smiles” contributes to Uganda’s goal of achieving equitable healthcare and ensuring that oral health is recognized as a vital component of general health and quality of life. |
