As a service supporting people who have experiences of human trafficking and modern slavery, we find that many of our clients have not had access to dental care for long periods of time and may be experiencing daily pain for treatable dental issues. Most of our clients are temporary visa holders and asylum seekers, some of whom are unable to access government benefits.
Our clients who have attended the ADA NSW Filling the Gap clinics for free dental treatment over the past 2 years have expressed relief and gratitude to have accessed this service. Clients say that the treatment they received was friendly, caring and professional, and that receiving this dental work has been a very positive experience, improving their daily quality of life.
It has been a pleasure for our service to work with the friendly and dedicated ADA NSW staff members.
