The Dental Treks are a main pillar of the Misheel Kids Foundation. In addition to providing dental care to disadvantaged children in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar, they also allow us to reach and provide dental care to rural children in areas that are often difficult to access. In 2018, Misheel Kids Foundation undertook its first Dental Trek – a 2000-kilometer journey with a mobile dental team to the reindeer nomads, the Tsaatan, in northern Mongolia.
 
Since then, the Foundation has conducted two Dental Treks annually to remote regions of Mongolia. With its four mobile units, the team treats more than 60 children per day on these missions. The journeys of several thousand kilometers, the assembly and disassembly of the equipment and the treatment of the patients under constantly changing and difficult conditions demand a lot from the team. But the gratitude that comes back from the people is great, makes us incredibly happy and gives us the motivation for the coming missions. The people living around the settlements take all the hurdles to bring their children to our treatment center. Be it by car, motorcycle or on horseback.
