New Delhi: The Faculty of Dentistry at Jamia Millia Islamia has been providing regular dental check up and referral camps since 2009, especially to the underprivileged sections of society, who find it difficult to afford dental treatment.
These dental check up camps work at 1) Okhla Centre of the Delhi Society for the Welfare of Special Children, Okhla 2) Delhi Cheshire Homes (for Mentally and Physically Challenged), Okhla and 3) Balak Mata Centres at Matia Mahal and Qasab Pura, Delhi.
The University is continuing with this oral health programme by providing certain basic treatment e.g. scaling, restoration and extraction of teeth etc. free of cost to people at these centres on a regular basis.
Jamia Millia Islamia’s faculty of Dentistry has now decided to adopt these three centres officially to carry out its social outreach programme.
