The Dental Clinic and HOPE Center


 
Many people in developing countries lack proper or even any dental care. Mercy Ship's dental clinic gives dental care and teaches oral hygiene to the patients. Over the course of the outreach the clinic will provide over 22,000 dental procedures and other medical services. The clinic is about a 20 minute drive from the ship.
 
 
It is in the same compound as the HOPE center, where patients can stay while recovering from surgeries and for the night before their surgery if they are from out of town.
 
 
The HOPE center uses both floors for the patients and their caregivers.
