Community Dental Camps
A free camp wherever a community already gathers — apartments, temples, ashrams, community halls and NGO centres.
What this programme is
The single biggest barrier to dental care in India is not cost or awareness. It is that going to a clinic requires a decision, a journey and a day. Community camps remove all three by arriving where people already are.
These camps are free to the host and free to the participant. They are funded by our corporate programme and by donors.
Every time we run it
- Full oral examination with a documented finding for every participant
- Scaling and polishing where a chair-side setup is possible
- Oral-cancer screening for every adult over 30
- A group education session before screening begins
- Colour-coded referral cards and a written list of nearby affordable clinics
- An anonymised summary report to the host community
Three main hosts
Resident welfare associations
Weekend camps in the community hall. Typically 150–300 residents over a day.
Temples, ashrams & gurudwaras
Reaching elderly and low-income visitors who have no other routine health contact.
NGOs & shelters
Camps for populations — construction workers, shelter residents, care homes — that clinics rarely see.
