The Adaam Project

Speaking at Ferrahian High School in Encino, CA regarding the dire dental hygiene situation in the Republic of Armenian and how we can help.

Thank you Ferrahian High School for hosting us!

American University of Armenia recent studies show "almost 90% of all 12-year-old children have cavities".

This is the reason why Healthy Teeth is crucial to underprivileged communities in Armenia!

At Orran Orphanage giving tutorials and stressing the importance of building a habit of twice-a-day brushing

Hygiene Kits passed out to the AYF Youth Corps summer camp in the village of Broshyan

Our project director, Raffi Dadaian, with some of the Going Forward Youth Center children in Gyumri. We were able to supply 300 school-kids with toothbrushes and toothpastes while teaching them about how to brush and protect their tooth enamel from decay.

Along with oral hygiene tools, The Paros Foundation, teamed up with Heros Foundation, distributed backpacks and school supplies!

Here is some of the dental hygiene supplies The Adaam Project will be distributing to families and schoolchildren in Gyumri, Armenia on June 8th.

Get ready to say "CHEESE" Gyumri!

Recent surveys carried out by graduate students of the American University of Armenia have documented that:

The average five-year-old Armenia child has eight decayed, missing or filled primary teeth

Between the ages of 14 and 17 years old, the average child continues to experience dental decay at the rate of one permanent tooth per year

Almost 90% of all 12-year-old children have cavities

Only 20% of Armenia 18-year-olds still have all of their teeth

This illustrates the severe levels of disease in this young population, and is more than double that of children in many other countries.
