38 I I special report _ aid project in Tanzania Our experiences at the time have already led to the preparations for our next visit. So far, we aim: _to offer a constantly increasing dental service at the Ololosokwan clinic and Klein’s Camp; _to bring two new mobile dental chairs for si- multaneous operations upon our next visit; _then to add two operating lights and two sepa- rate suction units; _to bring one separate mobile ultrasonic kit to be used for perio by a dental hygienist; and _to extend the number of surgical instruments. Besides these dental arrangements, two major necessities for the development of the clinic need to be arranged by the local community, maybe in collaboration with Klein’s Camp: electricity and water supply. Electricity is a must for the future. Of course, we could always borrow a generator, but a fixed and powerful one, protected in an outbuild- ing and with permanent wiring to all seven rooms, would make the clinic in terms of medical stan- dards much more reliable, comfortable, normal and safer—not only in daylight but also especially for night-time emergencies. A clean water supply is also a must for a clinic and for a dental depart- ment too, and for other medical disciplines like gynaecology, ophthalmology and surgery. From our side, our hearts are beating for Ololo- sokwan and we are willing to support this place as much as we can in future. Ololosokwan could be- come a local centre for interdisciplinary treatment byagroupofdoctorsfromvariousmedicalfields._ cosmeticdentistry 3_2012 Prof.Martin Jörgens graduated from the WestfaelischeWilhelms University Muenster (Germany) in 1989.He is a President of DGKZ (GermanAssociation of Cosmetic Dentistry) and professor for laser medicine at the University of Sevilla (Spain).He holds a private dental office “DentalSpecialists”together with Dr Caroline Kentsch and Prof.MarcelWainwright.
