Archaeology

The other day, sister Sealy and I were cleaning out a little more of the dental clinic. It's a daunting task, so we take it a little bit at a time. While we were digging under the sink in the lab, we found some interesting things. One thing, I got excited about, was the portable dental unit. I had heard rumors about one floating around. Some of the rumors said it had been in one of the storage containers out back and that a missionary pilot took it with him when he left the country two or more years ago. Anyway, there was one under the sink. I haven't figured out if it works or not, but it's there. The other thing we unearthed (pictured above) is an old dental handpiece. It would be called a slow-speed now, but I think in its day it was the only speed. I was pretty sure that we wouldn't be using it. Ever. So I threw it out. But, first I took some pictures.

So, I felt like I was finding an ancient artifact. I hope no museums get angry with me for throwing it away.

Free Dental Clinic

Last Sunday, Catherine and I went to LBI, a town East of Georgetown, for a free dental clinic. It was sponsored by Colgate, Pathfinders, and the local SDA church. ~200 patients were seen for extractions, cleanings, simple fillings, and fluoride treatment. Some of the local dental technicians who were helping out were a little rough on the patients, but they got the job done.
