Family Teeth Matters continues to reach out to refugees and new immigrants in Auckland. We had volunteer dentists Rick and Patrick helping David to screen patients for dental needs, I was able to follow up with Yvonne and Susan to give them dental education on how to prevent the problem and give them our lovely Detective sugar Spotter book, We saw around 75 people. The Salvation army and OPSM were all part of it too. We followed this event up with an afternoon tea for refugees and new immigrants with Clare doctor and David dentist and Tanya accountant at the Grace City church church cafe in Greenlane All the speakers had great tips and information on how to settle into life in New Zealand
I continue to give give talks throughout the year to new refugees coming into New Zealand and they love the toothbrushes and our beautiful Dental Sugar Spotter books
