Rayong Regional Authorities Join Hands with AT U Dental for a Community-Oriented CSR Initiative
Access to basic healthcare services remains a significant challenge for remote communities, primarily due to transportation barriers. This challenge is especially pronounced among the elderly, who often find it difficult to travel long distances for medical check-ups. As a result, many individuals do not receive timely diagnoses or appropriate dental treatments, leading to long-term health complications. One of the most common yet overlooked health issues is oral health deterioration, including dental decay and gum disease. According to the 8th National Oral Health Survey conducted by the Department of Health, over 60% of working-age adults suffer from gingivitis and lack access to proper treatment. Additionally, more than 50% of elderly individuals experience untreated tooth decay, which significantly affects their ability to chew food and can lead to severe long-term health problems. The primary causes of these issues include low accessibility to dental services—currently at only 10% in Thailand—and a lack of awareness regarding proper oral hygiene.
To address this pressing issue, government agencies and private organizations have come together to establish mobile dental clinics. These clinics aim to increase accessibility to dental services while promoting greater awareness of oral health. Recognizing the urgency of the problem, regional authorities in Rayong have partnered with AT U Dental to launch a CSR initiative that provides Mobile Dental Clinic services to underprivileged communities in remote areas. This initiative goes beyond providing basic dental check-ups and treatments; it also focuses on educating locals about proper oral care. By raising awareness and encouraging preventive measures, the project aims to reduce the prevalence of dental issues such as: Tooth decay, Gingivitis, Plaque buildup and yellowing teeth, Bad breath, Loose teeth and tooth loss, Oral cancer, Dry mouth in elderly individuals.. Without proper intervention, these conditions can escalate into severe health complications. The goal of this initiative is to equip communities with knowledge and access to dental care, ensuring improved long-term oral health outcomes.
Bridging the Gap in Dental Care Accessibility Through Mobile Dental Clinics
The core objective of this CSR initiative is to close the gap in dental service accessibility, particularly for underserved communities. Mobile dental clinics serve as a vital tool in reaching individuals who cannot travel to traditional dental facilities. The services provided by AT U Dental and the Rayong regional authorities include: ✔ Comprehensive oral health check-ups ✔ Teeth cleaning and scaling ✔ Cavity treatment and fillings ✔ Tooth extractions ✔ Personalized oral hygiene guidance AT U Dental’s mobile dental units have become a popular choice for CSR projects due to their state-of-the-art equipment, modern facilities, and certification from the Ministry of Public Health (SHA standard). These mobile units offer efficient and safe dental services, staffed by experienced dentists and trained dental assistants who work closely to ensure patient safety and high-quality care. Each dental check-up is designed to be quick and efficient, with an average service time of just 30 minutes per patient. This allows more individuals to receive the necessary treatment within a short timeframe, maximizing the impact of the initiative.
The Role of Rayong Regional Authorities in Ensuring the Initiative’s Success
This CSR initiative would not have been possible without the strong collaboration of Rayong’s regional authorities. Their key contributions included: ✔ Providing designated locations for mobile dental services ✔ Raising awareness and mobilizing community participation ✔ Coordinating logistics for both patients and dental teams Their dedicated efforts ensured the smooth operation of the program, allowing residents to receive essential dental care with confidence in its safety and reliability. The initiative has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from local communities, reinforcing the importance of public-private partnerships in enhancing healthcare accessibility.
