Mexico Adventure

I am sitting here in a beautiful home in Casas Grandes, Mexico. Me, my dad, who is a Dentist, along with my brother, came down to Mexico yesterday for a service trip. An Opthamology team of 3 came too. Today was our first day to work in the clinic and it was a very humbly yet happy experience. We saw a bunch of people who needed teeth extracted or others who have never had there teeth cleaned in their lives. My dad allowed me to scale as many people as I could and this was Amazing. I felt terrible that people were living with all the buildup and sore gums but it was an incredible learning experience for me to work on them. I actually got to click tartar off and see results of my work. I couldn't believe all that I was seeing. Fluorosis is a Huge problem down there and it was sad to see how it has affected the color and strength of some of these people's teeth. I am so thankful to be here and to help so many people in need. Tomorrow we will be working at the clinic again and I can't wait! I love to help others in need and especially those with dental concerns. I will never forget this trip and the many things I've learned here in Mexico.
