IMWA Organises Two - Day Free Dental Camp for Members at Virtus Dental Clinic

The Indian Muslim Welfare Association (IMWA), Kuwait, organised a free dental check-up camp for its members and their families at Virtus Dental Clinic on 7th and 8th September 2026, at both its clinics in Salmiya and Mangaf as part of its ongoing commitment to promoting health and welfare among the Indian community in Kuwait.

The two-day dental camp provided IMWA members and their family members with an opportunity to undergo professional dental examinations and receive expert advice on maintaining good oral health. The initiative was particularly aimed at encouraging members to give greater attention to oral hygiene and to seek timely dental care before minor problems develop into serious dental conditions.

The camp was conducted with the support and cooperation of the doctors, dental professionals and staff of Virtus Dental Clinic. Special arrangements were made to ensure that the visiting members received proper attention and that the consultations were conducted in an organised and comfortable manner. The clinic also made arrangements to accommodate women patients, including the availability of female doctors and separate waiting facilities.

Speaking on the occasion, IMWA President Syed Hanif Ahmed welcomed the members attending the camp and stressed the importance of regular dental check-ups as an essential part of overall health and well-being. He said that oral health is often overlooked despite its close connection with general health and that regular examinations can help identify dental problems at an early stage.

He expressed his appreciation to the members and their families for responding positively to the initiative and making use of the facility provided by IMWA. He also thanked the doctors, dental professionals and staff of Virtus Dental Clinic for their valuable support and for dedicating their time to serve the community.

The IMWA President particularly appreciated Virtus Dental Clinic for its cooperation in making the programme possible and for extending a 50% discount on dental treatment for IMWA members following the camp. The arrangement is expected to provide further assistance to members who may

 require treatment after their initial dental examination.

The dental camp is another initiative in IMWA's series of community welfare programmes designed to benefit its members and their families. The association has been regularly organising programmes in areas such as education, family welfare, counselling, religious activities and healthcare, with the objective of strengthening community participation and providing practical benefits to its membership.

The successful organisation of the dental camp also reflected the coordinated efforts of the IMWA Executive Committee members, who worked closely with the clinic to manage registrations, allocate appointments and ensure that the programme proceeded smoothly. Members were encouraged to follow their allotted time slots so that overcrowding could be avoided and each participant could receive adequate attention from the dental team.

IMWA expressed its gratitude to all members who participated in the camp and encouraged them to continue giving priority to preventive healthcare. The association also conveyed its hope that similar health and welfare initiatives would be organised in the future in collaboration with healthcare institutions and other community partners.

The programme concluded with appreciation to Virtus Dental Clinic, its doctors and staff, a special thanks goes to Mr Nitin Narayanan, operations manager for his efforts in conducting this free dental camp. and the IMWA Executive Committee for their collective efforts in making the dental camp a meaningful and beneficial initiative for the Indian community in Kuwait.
