🦷🔍 Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes at a GDR field clinic?

There’s a LOT more to providing dental care than what happens in the chair! If you join a GDR clinic as a general volunteer, you might have the important job of sterilization, carefully cleaning each instrument and tool. 🌎✨

Come behind the scenes and check out our field sterilization setup! 😁🪥

For 25 years, Aseptico Inc. has been an incredible partner to Global Dental Relief. 💙

Since GDR's beginning, Aseptico has been the dental unit of choice for all of our clinics across six countries. Aseptico donates units at a deeply discounted rate, allowing GDR clinics to maintain quality equipment at a more affordable cost. They have also helped us develop repair kits to keep units running for years and years.

Their durable equipment helps our volunteer dentists deliver quality care to children in need, even in more challenging settings.

Thank you, Aseptico, for 25 years of partnership and for helping us bring healthy smiles to children worldwide! 🪥🌏
