New Delhi: The AAP government will set up around 100 dental clinics across Delhi on the lines of mohalla clinics, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said.
Inaugurating the 'Dental Health Utsav' organised by Maulana Azad Institute of Dental Sciences (MAIDS) here, Sisodia said the project is being implemented as part of the government's efforts to enhance medical infrastructure in the national capital.
These dental clinics will offer minor procedures, which he said would be a major step towards preventing oral diseases.
"It is necessary to initiate awareness drives and render appropriate and timely dental care. The efforts should be to target mainly school children so that they develop positive dental health attitude. There is an urgent need to bring oral health to the schools and train children to maintain oral hygiene," Sisodia said as he released the "Annual Year Book" of MAIDS on the occasion.
