In collaboration with Update Dental College and Hospital, Uttara University organized a free dental checkup camp on November 12, 2024, to promote oral health awareness and provide free dental services to students and the local community. The event was held on the ground floor of the university’s main building from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM and received a strong and positive response from participants. The event was organized by the Office of External Affairs at Uttara University.
Experienced dentists and healthcare professionals staffed the camp from Update Dental College and Hospital, who offered free dental checkups, consultations, and screenings. Participants received advice on maintaining proper oral hygiene and information on preventive dental care. Educational materials were also distributed to help attendees understand the importance of regular dental checkups and good oral health practices.
The initiative aimed to raise awareness about the importance of oral health as a critical aspect of overall well-being. With the rising prevalence of dental issues in the community, the camp provided an accessible opportunity for students to receive professional dental care at no cost. The event was well-received by attendees, who expressed appreciation for the opportunity to consult with dental professionals and gain valuable knowledge on maintaining oral health.
The success of the event underscores the growing need for accessible healthcare services, particularly in the realm of dental care. It was designed to provide immediate care and educate participants about preventive dental practices, such as proper brushing techniques, flossing, and regular dental checkups. It is part of Uttara University’s ongoing efforts to engage with the community and support public health initiatives.
