SLN dental clinic fosters oral health and hygiene habits in children

As part of the series of events commemorating its 75th anniversary, along with World Oral Health Day and Children’s Day, the Sri Lanka Navy successfully conducted a mobile dental clinic at the Sirisumana Dhamma School in Veyangoda on 26 Oct 25.

The community-focused initiative, organized and executed by the Navy Dental Department, provided essential oral healthcare services to the children of the Dhamma School and those attended the event.

The clinic offered complimentary dental check-ups and other basic oral health services. Beyond treatment, the event served as an educational platform, where naval dental professionals provided valuable guidance on improving daily dental hygiene and maintaining proper oral health practices.
