Dr Mitesh Badiani, Founder of SmileStar, praised the partnership with Cimas Health Group and local partners. "The partnership was a huge success, treating over 700 patients and providing relief from pain and gum disease," he said.
The outreach will continue in Matobo, following stops in Victoria Falls and Hwange. Cimas and SmileStar aim to promote oral health awareness and provide essential dental care to communities in need.
