Dental camps are one of the major ways of increasing awareness about oral diseases and their prevention. This also induces them to seek treatment before the disease is in the advanced stage. The organization conducts camps in schools, colleges, old age homes, workplace like construction sites, and factories, companies, public places like auto stand, railway station, community camps in villages etc. At least 1 or 2 camps are conducted per week. We conduct camps when organised by other colleges, organizations like rotary club, Lions club etc. Camps are conducted locally or far off places like suburbs of Chennai or far away town or village. The camps could be awareness creating and survey camps, or screening camps, or treatment camps like scaling, filling, extraction, denture camps etc.
