Happy Smiles!

Dentist's helping our students.

Dentist’s helping our students.

 

A group of volunteer dentists and dental assistants have chosen to bless IDEA and our students with their talents.  Taking a couple days a week to volunteer at our dorms and then spending the rest of their time enjoying our lovely island paradise.  A win-win!

So many of our students would never have the opportunity to receive this quality of dental care.   Through the generosity of these dentists and the sponsors  who so graciously pay for them to be at IDEA’s schools, they  are able to receive not just an education, but care for their physical needs as well.

 

Our dormitory dining areas work great as a temporary dental lab.
