BY Dr. Kunti Makwana.

We, Dr. Fernando Noronha’s team had attended the national conference which was the 72nd INDIAN DENTAL CONFERENCE 2019 held in Indore Madhya Pradesh.

There were numerous lectures held in the conference by  good Indian and International speakers on various topics which covered almost entire scope of dentistry right from basics to advanced dental problems and complications, treatments. The topics gave solutions for everyday problems, the latest technologies and innovations in dental fields.

I enjoyed  many lectures for the upcoming dentists as well as on the future of dentistry.

The lectures were very useful and informative. We got to learn many new things on dentistry.

I had an amazing experience attending the conference . Our team was fun , enthusiatic and energetic.

Due to the encouragement received from Dr. Fernando Noronha, I was able to give a presentation in front of a big crowd of dentists and judges. Initially I was scared and nervous with all butterflies in my stomach till I went on the dais. But all’s well that ends well… ended my presentation with a loud applause from the audience and appreciation from the judges and was also awarded with a certificate. It was a moment that I will cherish throughout my life.

First time in my life I gave a dental presentation,  that too at a national level forum. It was an awesome experience.

At the inaugural function there was a lovely entertainment program which i enjoyed.

Apart from this we also got a chance to visit different beautiful historic places in Indore which had a mesmerizing view and also had experience of the delicious Indore food.

Overall we had a very nice time learnt many new things new experience in life and I’m glad to be a part of Dr. Noronha’s team.

32nd ANNIVERSARY

32nd ANNIVERSARY

Post by: Dr. Fernando Noronha

32  is a milestone in dentistry. It signifies the number of permanent teeth in your mouth and sometimes the number of painful visits to your friendly dentist 🙂

YEARS in your life can mean the happy, the wild ,  the boring drilling, the fun achieving, the tiring and the fulfilling…. In my case all together a satisfying period spent with so many who were a part of this journey.

A smile is the prettiest thing you can wear. Giving you one of them is the most rewarding experience which has kept us focused and committed to this field. Even more challenging is the varied cases we encounter and the innumerable teeth we save.

32 years has seen me growing from one chair to five operatories, a specialized children’s dentistry and a unique home dentistry for the non-ambulatory, sick or housebound patient.

You Made It All Happen…..

Along with my core team, I am eternally grateful to all of you who have been a support and have entrusted your pearls in our hands and continue to do so with utmost faith in our services and quality of care. We reiterate our commitment to society by providing the best of dental treatments with the latest materials and techniques to bring back the smiles to where they belong..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kiddies Dental Camps

Kiddies Dental Camps

Post by: Dr. Roshni Fernandes

Our last camp with Voluntary Health Association of Goa for the year 2017

Dr. Fernando, Dr. Denise and Dr. Roshni screened 150 students of Govt. Primary and Middle School in Zuarinagar. Was quite an interactive camp wherein students, aged 6-14 years,  asked us about what needs to be done in case of a toothache, and how to make their teeth whiter.

We wish to carry out more camps, reaching out to the underprivileged, and most of all children.

 

School Dental Camps. Dr. Denise reflects:

School Dental Camps. Dr. Denise reflects:

 

After a brief hiatus, Dr. Fernando’s Dental Clinic, is back again with their community programmes.

The Voluntary Health Association of Goa organized a health camp at Our Lady of Mercy English High School, Vasco.  Dr Fernando Noronha’s clinic was invited to do the dental checkups. It was my first time going for a dental camp and I was really excited.  So we packed our dental kit and scampered off to Vasco for a 2 day camp on 24th & 25th of July 2017.

As soon as we began the screening, we realized the children had a lot of misconceptions and fears about dental treatment, and so we set about allaying their fears.

The first day we attended to students from the 8th to 10th std and on the next day we attended to the 5th to 7th std students,  which were around 600 students.  The children were given a talk and demonstration on the importance of oral hygiene and its maintenance.

We realized that many students had never visited a dentist for any treatment and so many were in need of urgent work. There was this one child who was suffering with dental problems but unfortunately he couldn’t undergo the treatment due to lack of financial means. I personally feel government support or sponsors are required to help such children undergo basic treatment. Overall the experience was satisfying and I look forward to such camps.

2 Day Dental Camp at Our Lady of Candelaria

2 Day Dental Camp at Our Lady of Candelaria

Post by: Dr. Fernando N.

Mid November, the Voluntary Health Association of Goa, invited us to organise another 2 day dental camp, this time all the way down to Vasco.

At 9:00am, we reached Our Lady of Candelaria School, which is located  in Baina, approximately 2kms from Baina beach.

We screened a little over 600 students. Most of the  students are basically from the locality and were unaware of the importance of their own teeth . Our team patiently examined and explained to each student the importance of oral hygiene and what kind of dental treatment they need to undergo. The interaction was very beneficial…… we realised they were misled about myths on extractions and restorations of decayed teeth. We also realised that 98% of them had never been to a dental clinic before.

The funniest moment was when a 10 year old student was asked to see a dentist to get a badly decayed tooth extracted, and he innocently replied “nikalne ka nahin, brain fuse ho jata hai”. An audio visual presentation was very helpful in motivating the children towards their oral health.

Dental meet at Bangkok

Dental meet at Bangkok

A Trip to Bangkok is always exciting. The anticipation of the sights, culture, shopping, shows and massages  all add to the excitement. Dr. Anagha and myself were looking forward to the visit to the famous Chulalongkorn University campus on their 75th anniversary year.
img_1336With a fantastic line up of lectures and presentations by the faculty of Dentistry at the university campus, and a visit to the museums of human anatomy and the dental campus, it was an awesome experience. The college is a very advanced complex of buildings housing different specialities and well networked to provide the best care to the patients there. Some times Free dental treatments are provided  to patients on various occasions or on the request of the Queen.

The country was in mourning during this time, because of the passing away of their beloved King, but life was pretty normal and the sentiment was felt in the dress of the “Aam Admi”. they all wore black, some on their arms, or tops or dresses or whatever. It was seen everywhere.

A visit to the GOLDEN Buddha, the weekly market at Chatuchak, and a trip to Pattaya sealed the trip for everyone. As for the massage…… I’ll tell you later sometime 🙂 🙂
