HBHH Dental Mission team

??The founder of Help Bring Hope to Haiti, Patricia Eddy organized a dental mission trip on May 16-20 in St-Suzanne. The dental team have seen 400 people 100 per day, the doctors have seen lots of bad teeth, worse than they have ever seen before. The Dental team said that all of these people they have seen had never been to a dentist before. The Dentists had educated the people how to use the dental floss and most of the people have NEVER used or know about dental floss. When instruments are dirty or bloody you have to clean them so no blood get to a other person as it can make them sick. If somebody for example had HIV and there's blood on the instruments then you can give somebody else HIV because it was contaminated. That's one of the reasons they sterilize their equipment after each use: it takes about 15 mints.
