Community Activity “Vi nu cuoi tre tho”, Season 2

On May 31, 2024, the Faculty of Dentistry at Van Lang University, in collaboration with the V-FDC Academic Club and the Mobile Dental Clinic of VLU, organized Season 2 of the "Vi nu cuoi tre tho" (For Children's Smiles) program at Thu Duc Youth Village. This meaningful activity demonstrated the community's concern for the oral health of disadvantaged children.

Thu Duc Youth Village is a shelter that nurtures orphans and children in difficult circumstances. The "Vi nu cuoi tre tho" program not only taught the children about proper oral care and provided dental check-ups, but also brought joy, sharing, and laughter to the shelter through group activities and surprise gifts. 

VLU's Mobile Dental Clinic ensured professional and effective dental examinations and treatments." In addition, the children took part in educational oral health activities through games and plays.

Ngo Xa Binh San, a Dentistry Course 27 student, shared: “This was my first real-life experience. Initially, I was a bit nervous, but with the support and encouragement from lecturers and friends, I quickly adapted and learned a lot.” By assisting the doctors, San gained valuable knowledge in examination and diagnosis. She understood that the practical working environment is the best place for health students to hone their knowledge and skills.

Tran Duong Hanh Khoa, a Dentistry Course 26 student, said: “The program was not only meaningful, but it also left a beautiful memory on my journey to becoming a compassionate doctor. Communicating and connecting with children is a challenge, but seeing their bright smiles and sparkling eyes as they learn about dental health is a great motivation for me to stay strong on my path to becoming a dentist.”

The "Vi nu cuoi tre tho - Season 2" program has ended, but the journey to bring smiles to children continues. The Faculty of Dentistry is committed to continuing its support to bring healthy and radiant smiles to children all over the country.
