The dentist travels the world and treats the poor for free.🥰👏
Felipe Rossi, who is a good dentist, travels to different countries providing free dental care to those who do not have access to professional treatment.
Rossi’s mission is to bring back smiles and inspire hope in the lives of the underprivileged. He founded Por1sorriso, an organization dedicated to helping poor communities around the world.
The cost of dental visits is almost impossible for many, especially for those who have neglected their oral health due to various factors.
Working with patients requiring extensive dental care, including total tooth replacements, Rossi and his team takes on complex cases that can take months to finish.
Rossi emphasizes that Por1sorriso is different from projects that simply distribute toothbrushes and toothpaste. The activity of the organization is aimed at providing comprehensive dental care to those who can’t afford it.
The Por1sorriso team works primarily in countries where poverty prevails, such as Brazil, Kenya, and Mozambique.
Rossi acknowledges that in a database of over 4,000 volunteers, not all of them provide long-term support, but the need for help is constant.
When starting their missions, the team carries over two tons of equipment to provide the necessary assistance.
The effects of Rossi’s work are striking. Patients who once suffered from cavities and inflamed gums now have beaming, Hollywood-like smiles.
Terri Rimmer, one of Felipe Rossi’s patients, shares her story. She didn’t smile before and avoided certain foods due to the condition of her teeth. Yet, receiving the treatment, her life changed drastically. Seeing her reflection in the mirror makes her happy as she is not shy to laugh anymore.
