July 2012 News from Cosmopolitan Dental




2011 Trip

August is a special month for Dr. Nazarian at Cosmopolitan Dental! This will be his fifth year traveling overseas to Jambar (camp) to provide dental care for the orphaned and disadvantaged children of Armenia. This irreplaceable and one of a kind experience has shown to be fulfilling, gratifying and educational all at the same time. One of the more unique aspects of the camp, along with the regular day to day camp activities, is the opportunity the children get to receive dental care performed by passionate and dedicated dentists and volunteers from all over the world. Armenian Dental Volunteers have been providing free dental care for the poor, orphaned and underprivileged since 1994 with Dr. Viken Garabedian of Laguna Niguel, California as the catalyst. The program began, as Dr. Garabedian explained, "with lawn chairs, flashlights, and all things basic." In 1998, the dental clinic as is today was completed with aid from the Armenian Dental Society of California. Today it operates as a modern four operatory American Clinic, with an x-ray machine, dental tools, hand-pieces, and all modern dental materials.
