Whenever a member suffers from dental problems, his or her ability to perform the mission is affected. To prevent this, the 380th Expeditionary Medical Group’s dental clinic at Al Dhafra Air Base, United Arab Emirates, analyzes and treats the problem.
The dental team is comprised of Col. Mike Webb and Master Sgt. Andrey Hernandez who provides dental readiness exams for permanent party and 365-day deployers, along with emergency treatment for uncontrolled pain, swelling, sensitivity and broken teeth or fillings.
