Dynamic Smile Design, a dental practice in Orlando, is partnering with Florida Hospital to support a humanitarian mission to Ethiopia. The hospital is home to Global Mission Initiatives, which provides medical and spiritual services to people in need around the world.
Volunteers will head to Ethiopia October 8 and will be working at Summit Clinic in Kalala village on the outskirts of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Florida Hospital helped construct the Summit Clinic in 2009, and it now provides family planning, ultrasound, pharmacy, and outpatient primary care to the people in the area.
Dr. Elena C. Puig, owner and primary dentist at Dynamic Smile Design, is excited to be a part of the mission effort. “We are supplying children’s toothbrushes, toothpaste and dental floss for children over the age of five,” she said. “It was great to meet the Spiritual Ambassador, Zuleyka Wunschel, and be privileged to donate these items for the Ethiopian mission trip.”
Dr. Puig is a nationally renowned dentist in Orlando, seeing patients from all across the state and often from other parts of the world. She specializes in preventive, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry, offering oral sedation for patient comfort.
After 20 years of practice, Puig’s passion for her profession remains undimmed. “The best part of practicing today is my facility and my team. I work with an amazing group of women, terrific equipment, and the technology to give my patients the very best in dental care.”
This isn’t Dr. Puig’s first experience with outreach. She donates time and services annually to the Community Dental Clinic to provide underprivileged residents with high quality care. The upcoming mission to Ethiopia is just another chance to give back.
“It’s a fantastic way to support the Global Mission Initiative and promote dental care in a region where there aren’t many dentists, let alone basic supplies available for home oral health,” she said. “I’m glad Dynamic Smile Design could be a part of this effort.”
