Examination, treatment, and dental care consultation for children with cerebral palsy in Dak Lak

On April 19, in Dak Lak, Buon Ma Thuot University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital (BUH) in collaboration with the Association of Families of Children with Cerebral Palsy in Vietnam (CPFAV) organized a humanitarian program to examine, treat and provide dental care consultation for children with cerebral palsy.

The program will be implemented over 3 days (April 19-21), with about 40 children with cerebral palsy in Dak Lak province being examined, treated and advised on oral health care by doctors. The children will have their teeth cleaned, filled, extracted, given and received medicine.

According to Dr. Tran Ngoc Viet, Deputy Director of Buon Ma Thuot University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital, children with cerebral palsy face many health difficulties, including oral health problems. Therefore, by organizing this program regularly, the hospital helps children have the opportunity to be examined, treated and have better oral health care. "This activity of the hospital is not only meaningful in terms of medical care but also adds motivation and reduces the financial burden for parents with children with cerebral palsy to boldly bring their children to integrate and connect with the community," said Mr. Viet.

Previously, in August 2023, Buon Ma Thuot University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital also organized a program to examine, treat and provide free dental care consultation for nearly 30 children with cerebral palsy in Dak Lak.
