The College of Oral and Dental Surgery Conducts Major Community Health Outreach Programme

On March 15, 2025, Misr University for Science and Technology (MUST) organized a large-scale dental outreach visit to Khaled Ibn Al-Walid School in Imbaba, coordinated by the College of Oral and Dental Surgery.

The initiative provided free access to preventative oral care and dental education for over 1,200 school students, directly benefiting disadvantaged people and youth in the local community.

Specialist healthcare professionals led the clinical team, conducting mass pediatric dental screenings, plaque detection tests, and interactive tooth-brushing instruction sessions. Integral to the initiative was active student volunteering, with MUST dental students leading hands-on educational drills and guiding young pupils on essential hygiene and WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) practices for optimal oral health.

To reinforce long-term health habits, the team distributed complimentary individual dental kits alongside engaging oral health educational coloring books to all participating students. Through this comprehensive health outreach programme, MUST continues to demonstrate its commitment to expanding preventative care, empowering local communities, and training future healthcare leaders in public service.
