Over 500 people benefited from the camp meant for the public.

M. Dharanidharan, lecturer, Vivekananda Dental College, said cavity and calculus (deposits on teeth) were common among the students. “In the cases where cavities were in initial stages, we recommended permanent filling . If cavities were in advanced stage, we did temporary filling at the camp itself,” he said.
