Make a Miracle believes good oral care is pivotal to good health. In our best estimation, 9 of 10 people living  in San Juan de Lurigancho and the hill communities of Peru do not go to the dentist for oral care. We host dental clinics for children and have had an incredible response. 

 

Since the Miracle Wellness Center has been completed, these clinics are a permanent program. We  begin with restorative dentistry, including extractions, fillings, and antibiotics to control infection. Our next step will be to shift towards preventative care.  With preventative care, we will lower the health risks associated with bad oral hygiene and reduce the amount of restorative dentistry needed.
