Thanks for the smiles :) Gracias por las sonrisas

We want to thank you sincerely, because with your generous and supportive contribution to our health project, you make it possible for our children to have transportation and the people who accompany them to their dentist appointments.

A local university donates us the services and dental treatments, but we could not use them if we did not have a safe transport to take the children and the people to go with them and take care of them.  Every week about 10 children go to their appointments.

Samuel, 5 years old, tells us: "I like to go to the dentist because they check our teeth, they give us balloons, cookies and gifts. I also like it because they give us toothbrushes". And does it hurt? "Nooo, it does not hurt, they only throw water and wind and they sound like tststs".

Delia, our nurse, explains that most children come to CRAN in difficult conditions, because they do not have health habits to take care of their teeth or visit the dentist. The treatments range from cavities to more complex procedures that require several appointments.

Thank you very much for caring for and protecting the children of CRAN until they recover their right to a family for life.

Queremos darte las gracias de corazón porque con tu aporte generoso y solidario a nuestro proyecto de salud haces posible que nuestros niños puedan tener el transporte y las personas que los acompañen a sus citas de odontología.

Una universidad nos dona los servicios y tratamientos ondontológicos, pero no podríamos usarlos si no tuviéramos un transporte seguro para llevar a los niños y las personas para que los acompañen y cuiden. Cada semana unos 10 niños van a su cita.  

Samuel, de 5 años, nos cuenta: "Me gusta ir al ondontólogo porque nos revisan los dientes, nos dan globos, galletas y regalos. También me gusta porque nos dan cepillos de dientes". ¿Y no te duele? "Nooo, no duele, solo le echan agua y viento y ya y hace stststs".

Delia, nuestra enfermera, nos explica que la mayoría de niños llegan a CRAN en condiciones difíciles, pues no tienen hábitos de salud para cuidar sus dientes ni tampoco visitan al odontólogo. Los tratamientos van desde caries hasta procedimientos más complejos que requieren de varias citas.

Muchas gracias por cuidar y proteger a los niños de CRAN hasta que recuperan una familia para toda la vida.
