He promised to come see us for the whole month, finally came in on the last day. Beautiful smile! All he wanted was his teeth 'washed', he means prophy. Very happy with the result.</td></tr>

You may have noticed, all recent posts have been pictures of the game drives, no mention of the clinic activity. Actually, since this is such a modern, well-stocked clinic, dental services have been fairly routine and I didn't feel you would be interested in the day-to-day workings of a dental office!<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
24 clinic days. Although I am not a numbers man, around 240 patients seen and around 200 teeth extracted and just a few fillings. A few reflections:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
First, as we were promised, the day is very unpredictable. Maasai in the area are all aware of the clinic’s presence and know that it is open Monday through Friday year-round. No appointments are made, although we did hear that those with mobile phones will call ahead to be certain that the clinic will be open when they are able to arrive.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We have heard that people will travel up to three hours or more to see the dentist. Many walk, others ride a motorcycle taxi. Not only Maasai come to the clinic. Others, many working at the camps and resorts in the area do not wear the typical Maasai sandals and blanket; more western clothes, and do not have the ear jewelry that are typical of the Maasai.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Most have their dentistry done at no charge, although some are charged or there is a negotiation that takes place. As mentioned before, typically the patients want an extraction. The tooth has been painful for some time, and the x-ray taken confirms the need for the tooth to be removed. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You will also notice, not a lot of pictures of my patients. Maasai and Kenyans prefer not to have their pictures taken. We have honored that.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Mornings are busier than afternoons. An average day is 15 patients, we end the day between 3 and 4. If we are upstairs waiting for the next patients and look out the window and see the front gate closed. The clinic is closed! We change out of our scrubs and enjoy the afternoon.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Also, mentioned, most procedures are extractions. Most of them are molars, and most of them are wisdom teeth! I think most dentists would agree that wisdom teeth are the most challenging to remove due to the anatomy of tooth and location in mouth. But, that is the way it is, and we deal with it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Interesting, rarely is there any gratitude expressed. It is cultural. It is my job to pull teeth, I have done so, and they walk out. The few that do know English, however, will frequently express appreciation and maybe a hand shake, otherwise, it's off to the next patient.</div>

To those in the dental community reading this blog, I recommend you consider this 'assignment'. The dentistry is challenging but you are well-taken care off with a great support staff, very comfortable accommodations and the opportunity to gain weight as you eat next door at the tent resort!</div>

<br />
Finally, our biggest thrill. A cheetah kill!! We had started tracking this cheetah when it was probably 400 yards out through the binoculars. We slowing started driving closer as it walked, sat, pondered life. Then, when we were no more than 50 yards away its slow rambling instantly turned into a 60mph run. She zig-zagged for no more than 50 yards and 4 seconds and she caught a dyk dyk. A small rabbit sized antelope. <br />
<br />
We could only watch as we fumbled for our cameras. As we got closer, she continue to walk, with the dyk dyk struggling for another 30 seconds then limp. She continued to walk to find something to 'hide' behind for her mid-morning snack. What a treat to see this animal in action. Our gain, the dyk dyk's loss.<br />

Finally, we loved these birds on the water buffaloes. They either sat on their backs for the view and ride, or they were busy eating bugs from the water buffalo's ears and noses. Very annoying....but appreciated. </div>

A leopard. Which, by the way completes our seeing the African Big Five. They are elephant, water buffalo, lion, hippo, and leopard.<br />
<br />
We had heard there was a leopard sighting, so we and many other vans and jeeps headed over to this grouping of trees and shrubbery hoping for a glance. We were only there about 5 minutes when the leopard popped our right in front of us!! We had front row seats.<br />

We did watch another 'migration'. Learned a bit more about it as well. The migration is north-to-south. Kenya to Tanzania, but the fording of the river we saw on Saturday was the opposite direction as the fording we saw a couple of weeks ago! So, go figure. We were told that wildebeests aren't too bright.....<br />

So many pictures, so many new things. We all commented, as I may have stated before, that you look out on the Mara, there are literally thousands of animals grazing. Water buffalo, wildebeests, impalas, gazelles, hyenas, zebras, tokis, etc, etc. Herds and herds, as far as the eye can see. Amazing.<br />

For a break last week, we went to the Siena Camp, where we take meals, to walk around a bit and we met Gideon. He is the ‘naturalist’ for the Camp. In introduction, we learned that ‘naturalist’ is the modern name for ‘medicine man’! Excellent English. He gave us a walking tour of the grounds to show us the different medicinal plants the Maasai have depended on for 100’s of years. </div>

Aloe Vera is used both internally and externally for a variety of uses. ‘Sandpaper Plant’ to smooth rough leather, (the leaves were around 00 sandpaper), the ‘sausage tree’ pods to make beer, another tree when you strip the bark it is used to tie sticks together for house building, bamboo and its many uses, and last but not least, the ‘toothbrush tree’.</div>

We were told prior to our departure to NOT bring toothbrushes for the local people. WHAT? That is a staple for service trips! Not in Kenya. The Maasai use the ‘toothbrush tree’ to brush their teeth. They break off a branch, whittle it down a bit with the ever-present machete and clean their teeth as they walk around. Indeed, Grace, one of our Dental Assistants is always ‘brushing’ her teeth with the stick as she prepares the clinic for the day.</div>

We are at the mid-point in our time in Kenya, 18 days in with 18 to go. We have settled into a nice routine. Clinic starts around 9am continues till around 1 or 2pm, then finishes up about 4pm. We are averaging 15-20 patients per day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Almost all patients request extractions. Single tooth/chief complaint. They may have several broken or decayed teeth, some even next to each other, but they will point to one and only want that one removed. Also, as we may have mentioned in the past, many of the Maasai both male and female have their lower central incisors removed at an early age. It is what their ‘tribe’ does. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Another cultural challenge is if their upper canines, or ‘eye-teeth’ are not coming in fully, and stuck under the lip. They want those removed as well. We have done several of these. A gal came in today, (we have stopped asking them how old they are, few know) who we think was a teenager, but may be in her twenties, wanted her canines removed. No orthodontics in the bush.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Around 4pm each day, the baboon family shows up at the garbage dump behind the clinic. They are very skittish, if they hear a door slam on the other side of the building, they are gone. So either we go out around 3:30 and wait, or we watch them through our back screened porch. Fun to watch, However, I wouldn’t want to get on their bad side.</div>

A short tour of her home was followed by a hospitality gift of orange slices. She also demonstrated how she lights her charcoal burner for cooking. Interesting. Charcoal is sold by the bags all over Africa. She has a small brazier with a few sticks. She then lights a portion of a plastic bag, letting the molten plastic drip on the sticks and you have a fire! She had already cut up some potatoes for grandma to cook for lunch. Once the brazier was lit, grandma took over with a bit of onion and tomato and spices.</span></span></h2>

Saturday. Day off today. With William home with family, our night watch-warrior took us on an amble in the bush. We wanted to see the air strip close to the clinic since we had been hearing planes landing and taking off there during the week. But, we saw much more and hiked much further. First, with a machete on his hip, he stopped at the front of the clinic to remove a lion spear from the entrance. We thought they were for decoration! They aren’t. Off we went.</div>

We started at 9:30 and worked our way thru the bush to the runway. Waiting there were 4 Maasai. Once they saw us, they laid out their small blankets and promptly organized their trinkets for sale. We thought they were preparing for a soon arriving flight with tourists, but no, it was for us. We had to explain that we carried no money with us and could not buy what they were selling. Indeed, the whole time we were out and about, no planes landed. We wondered if they hang out there all day, hoping for a flight to come in.</div>

We continued hiking thru the scrub. Lots of elephant droppings, (dumps would be more accurate) as well as droppings from other animals, but no sightings. Twice, in the distance, probably a mile away), we did see giraffes grazing. <br />

Our leader did show us a leg from a bush buck. Still had meat on it. He poked around a bit and found the body under a tree. Fairly fresh. We asked him what he thought killed the bush buck. He said ‘tree’. We think he meant that the animal got tangled up in the low branches and couldn’t extricate himself. The bush carnivores will continue to show their appreciation.<br />

Clinic Day 6, Wednesday</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We saw 8 patients today.
Three were Kenyans who own a second home close to the clinic. They live in Manchester England! We saw mom and her daughter and son, both
students at one of the universities in
Manchester. Mom lost a crown, we
scrambled to find some cement to put it back on, the daughter needed a filling,
and her brother looked good. All very
appreciative of the free care we provided!
Oh, they all had a very lilty English accent.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The other patients all needed teeth extracted. One gal was in her eighth month of her fourth
pregnancy. We got the tooth out. Labor did not begin……</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Clinic Day 7, Thursday</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Slowwwww day, only 5 patients. When a dental clinic is open 5 days a week,
year around, it is much different then when you sail to an island and the
population has never seen a dentist before, (and may never again)…..our
experience in Vanuatu years ago.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Clinic Day 8, Friday</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now we are back in business….sorta. Busy day, 15 patients. All extractions, because…..the air compressor
is not working today so I cannot use the handpiece to prepare teeth for
fillings. AND, I can’t do any surgical
extractions, (not just pulling a tooth, but removing bone around the tooth so
that I CAN pull the tooth.)----sorry for the graphic nature of this last
sentence---</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But, we have a job to do.
This means very carefully removing teeth that I would normally
surgically prepare prior to their removal.
But with a bit of extra time and careful pressure, I managed to easy them
all out without any broken roots, bone, etc. (graphic again, sorry). This resulted in a sore right arm, and a
developing blister on my right ring finger.
For you workout enthusiasts, today was my right arm and hand day.</div>

Monday started out quieter than last week’s clinic days. People are talking about the election a lot. Indeed, on our game drive on Saturday, we barely got gas, everyone is waiting to see what happens during and after the election.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Plus, I am under the weather. Not sure if it is a stomach thing or not, but I took it easy all day getting up three times to pull teeth. All routine extractions. Still raining off and on, we are told that this is quite unusual for August and that Kenya is in a 5-year drought.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The third extraction was for a lady who had ridden three hours in the rain on her motorcycle. She actually showed up during lunch, but we took the tooth out so she could get back on her bike and head home.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

The Gloria, Kathy and Tom went to the market with William yesterday, poured rain, difficult driving both directions, also other safari vans were stuck. Not much going on at the market.</div>

Whoa, we have way more photos, we'll send more tomorrow. To bring you back, we stumbled on something that is rarely ever seen. Lions mating.Twain Harte Family Dental Carehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16911642855866853453noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-297060094884047024.post-72985442803109203172017-08-06T11:16:00.001-07:002017-08-06T11:16:15.893-07:00Transit from US to Kenya for a month of volunteer dentistry<div class="MsoNormal">
Introduction as to why and where we are working in Kenya: First, the detailed history of the Maasai Dental Clinic can be found at <a href="https://whdo-public.sharepoint.com/">https://whdo-public.sharepoint.com/</a> . Briefly this clinic was the vision of Dr. Ray Damazo to provide free dental care for the 100,000 Maasai villagers who are within walking distance. It was opened in 2009 and to date almost 100 volunteer dentists have treated over 10,000 patients. Dr. Grossman, also at Twain Harte Family Dental Care, was here in July of 2014.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dentists from all over the world volunteer for a 2 or 4 week rotation. There is a very pleasant apartment up stairs. We have three dental assistants, a 3-chair first-world clinic downstairs and we are open for business for whoever drops in as they are herding their cattle or goats, and other villagers who may have walked a couple of days for us to treat their pain Monday through Friday. Fillings, cleanings and extractions are the typical treatment. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now, on to our adventure getting here. This seems like the longest dental service journey from doorstep to doorstep. I counted just over 40 hours. Our destination was not difficult to get to, just time consuming. In brief: 6 hour drive from Twain Harte to LAX, 15 hour non-stop to Doha, Qatar with a 9 hour layover. Then a 5 hour flight to Nairobi and another 6 hour drive to the clinic. Not listed is the time prior to flights, waiting in lines, immigration challenges, etc.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Backing up, we arrived in Nairobi at around 8AM with Harrison, our driver holding up a drawing of a tooth, our signal that he was our man. After a hiccup in immigration with our e-visa’s not printed out properly and a trip to an ATM, we embarked on a 3 hour journey to Narok. The ‘stepping-off-point’. (meaning, end-of-decent-road-point!).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Narok is where we filled two shopping carts for our one month stay at the clinic. A word about our meals. We are responsible for our transportation to the clinic, but we are provided some meals at the neighboring 3-star Siana Springs Tented Camp. <a href="http://www.siana-springs.co.ke/index.php">http://www.siana-springs.co.ke/index.php</a> . Not all meals are provided. Hence the need for two carts of food. Why Narok? That’s it for civilization. Now back to our final three hours from the market to the dental clinic.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
William, the clinic manager, met us at the market and we bid Harrison adieu. We transferred all our luggage and now multiple food boxes and sacks into William’s ‘safari vehicle’. What followed was three hours of washboard, washed out road, dust and bumps. Webster’s defines ‘middle-of-no-where’ as Maasi Dental Clinic.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We arrive at 5:30pm, unpacked all our suitcases and food, dinner at the Lodge and collapse in bed. We ignored the baboons and monkeys roaming about.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><i>Clinic Day One</i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As mentioned, the clinic is a nice 3 chair modern clinic. We open at 8:30 or when the first patient arrives. The 3 assistants bring each patient in, determine their chief complaint, typically take an x-ray then talk to Gloria or me about treatment. Traditionally, the patients will have multiple problems but a single complaint and we treat the complaint. We saw 14 patients today, mostly extractions, a few fillings, several cleanings. Because it is staffed by paid employees, lunch is from 12:30-2:00, and we shut the doors at 4:00. Also, if it quiets down in the late afternoon, the assistants shut the doors and leave early! Today, with only two patients in the PM, they closed up shop a bit before 4!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Overall, a good first day. X-rays can be both helpful and intimidating. Let me explain. Except for China, years ago, I have not had x-rays to diagnose teeth. If the patient is in pain, they point to the tooth and I pull it, (or them). With patience, I can ease most teeth out, not leaving roots or parts. I’ve pulled thousands, leaving probably fewer than ten root fragments. With x-rays it is almost like ‘too much information’. </div>

<b><i>Clinic Day Two</i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Whitney Houston and losing #8…..The assistants put on a Whitney Houston CD, went through it twice. Nice throw back to the 90’s. Fewer patients today. Again, mostly 3<sup>rd</sup> molars. A couple of cleanings and we ended the day with a 14(?) year old girl with a shattered upper front tooth. She told us that her brother threw a rock at her. Not sure if there was intent involved. Unfortunately, it had to be extracted.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In reference, most children have their two lower, central incisors extracted when they are young. Part of a passage to adulthood, they either have them removed at the clinic with anesthesia or in their village with a knife! Losing an upper front tooth is not too stressful for them. Speaking of childhood, we have learned that many people here do not know how old they are, both children and adults. No one has told them when they were born! We guess their age by looking at their dentition.</div>

<b><i>Clinic Day Three</i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Late start, around 10:00am. First patient, a nicely dressed lady. She needed two teeth removed. Her hair was beautiful, everything in braids. I asked my assistant, Grace, if I could compliment my patient on her braided hair. Grace giggled, she said they were extensions. Clueless……</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
A few more extractions and a couple of cleanings and a filling ended the day. We did have a Kenyan family that came in for some dental work, not dressed as in Maasai dress. More western, excellent English. After they left us, they went to the bar at the Resort for drinks, and then returned for pictures with the staff. Hmm, VIP’s? I guess we will never know.<br />

Graye and Mike left last night on an all night eight hour bus trip to Manila. They needed to catch an early morning flight to Tokyo, then on to either Denver or Seattle. We had the luxury of another night in Bangued to clean up, then a 5 hour drive to Laoag today.<br />
<br />
Also, it is Palm Sunday. Everyone is bustling around. Lots of floats are being readied for the parade and lots of "palms" are being created from bamboo shoots, Beautiful and creative.<br />

Stayed in "The Elder's" house. Not sure of his name, but he is the pastor to the small church in Malapaao, and he helped translate for us yesterday. Nice man, nice house. Services were in their small church still under construction. They are very proud of it and it will look very nice once it's finished.<br />

After church we had a traditional Filipino "budu fight" lunch. Everyone had great fun eating with their fingers. The family dogs waited patiently until we were done.<br />

After lunch and goodbyes it was back into the Jeepney for the 4 hour drive back to Bangued. We got stuck, again. This time no truck came around, so we had to dig and dig, jack up the rear wheels, and put rocks under the tires. Five times....it finally worked.<br />

Back at Bangued, we had a choice go to a local river to swim and eat dinner with our hosts, or McDonalds. Sorry, it was unanimous......McDonalds. Hamburgers, fries and ice cream just seems the "right" thing to eat after the last few days of bumping around in the Jeepney and sleeping on the floor, no showers and challenging toilet usage. Well, not really McDonalds, we went across the street to Jollibee's. The Filipino equivalent. (McDonalds was too busy and we wanted to compare). We weren't disappointed!<br />

Early start today, we got up at 5:45 to hit the road for 3 hours. Although we actually didn’t get to our destination, Malapaao, till around 10:00. We got stuck on the road once and had to get pulled out by a passing jeep. It is basically going up the seasonally dry river bed. Real bumpy. Very adventurous. <o:p></o:p></div>

This is a rather remote village in the mountains. Not a lot of modern conveniences, but very appreciate residents. Short clinic day today, 5 hours. Evening was at a local house, dinner of rice, eggplant from the garden, noodles and the requisite goat and chicken. <o:p></o:p></div>

Clinic today was about a 45 minute drive from our hotel in Bangued. We think it was in a small church, although more open-air then church. We set up at the “front”. Plenty of people were triaged for the Filipino doctor, the pharmacy and us. We ended up working till 5:30, seeing around 40 people and pulling about 90 teeth. I hit my personal best for the trip today, removing 13 teeth on one lucky lady!<o:p></o:p></div>

We all wearing our "Septodont" bandannas. This is a multi-national supplier</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of dental anesthetics, based in Europe. Gloria sent them a request</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for donated anesthetic and needles. They were VERY generous</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with their donation, and included bandannas that they asked us to wear for </div>

Lunch was special We walked a block down the road to a church member’s house. Routine rice, veggies, chicken and mango. But, we all agreed, the best chicken we have had since we came to the Philippines, and some in our group said it was the best chicken they have ever had! Fried and seasoned just right! Pollo Loco look out.<o:p></o:p></div>

Another 5 hour drive to where we will stay for the next two days, Mala-pao Abra. While we put new tires on the pick-up (!) we spent some time in the local mall at a city between Laoag and Mala-pao Abra. (sorry, can't keep all the city names straight). What a mall! Next door they were building an extension probably 3 times as big. Stores very similar to malls in America.<br />

In the mall was a good size supermarket. Gloria and I like to roam these looking for unique teas, coffees and spices. We were successful. More interesting was the focus we found on MILK! This store had milk wired. Three different isles of milk!<br />

In addition to five of us in the pickup and a jeepney full of people, three more were in the back of the truck, Graye, Chase and Kim, the local pastor's daughter. Kim stayed under the umbrella to keep the sun off and for easier texting on her phone!</div>

Lunch at Filipino fast food. Not sure what everything was. Although chicken-on-a-stick was recognizable. Desert was great, can't remember the name, except it had ice cream, beans, nuts, potatoes and something like flan. Delicious!</div>

We spent the afternoon at the school watching precision marching (!), getting a tour of the school, meeting the faculty and playing with the kids. A great time. Tomorrow, while we have a dental clinic about 40 minutes away, lots of construction will take place at the school.</div>
