00:00.009 --> 00:01.842
Us soldiers assigned to the 30th

00:01.842 --> 00:03.787
Medical Brigade along with Burundi

00:03.787 --> 00:06.009
military medical professionals provided

00:06.009 --> 00:08.176
dental services to Burundians during a

00:08.176 --> 00:10.640
medical readiness exercise . So the

00:10.649 --> 00:12.371
teeth are tightly connected to

00:12.371 --> 00:14.371
everything they're connected to our

00:14.371 --> 00:16.705
bodies , they're connected to our smile .

00:16.705 --> 00:18.927
And so anytime we can prioritize dental

00:18.927 --> 00:21.149
health , I think that is a great way of

00:21.149 --> 00:22.816
fostering relationships . The

00:22.816 --> 00:24.927
experience was also an opportunity to

00:24.927 --> 00:26.927
build relationships between medical

00:26.927 --> 00:28.982
professionals . I'm overwhelmed with

00:28.982 --> 00:30.629
positive experiences from my

00:30.639 --> 00:33.310
partnership with the Burundi military

00:33.319 --> 00:35.486
and the Burundi medical providers that

00:35.486 --> 00:37.597
I've experienced here . They are high

00:37.597 --> 00:39.597
quality professionals . They have a

00:39.597 --> 00:41.708
very dedicated sense of duty to their

00:41.708 --> 00:43.708
patients to provide them . The best

00:43.708 --> 00:45.763
quality care dental service was just

00:45.763 --> 00:47.708
one of several medical specialties

00:47.708 --> 00:49.652
offered during med Rs from Bambara

00:49.652 --> 00:51.819
Burundi . I'm Air Force staff Sergeant

00:51.819 --> 00:52.819
Crystal England .

01:44.400 --> 01:46.819
And if you can improve somebody's pain

01:46.830 --> 01:48.886
experience , so they're no longer in

01:48.886 --> 01:51.052
pain if they're having pain from their

01:51.052 --> 01:52.886
teeth , if you can improve their

01:52.886 --> 01:55.108
confidence and their smile , um that is

01:55.108 --> 01:54.870
you can improve their well being their

01:54.879 --> 01:56.546
self , uh their self esteem .

03:20.979 --> 03:24.669
No , I have one

03:24.979 --> 03:25.990
that you two

03:31.130 --> 03:32.130
go .

05:58.089 --> 06:00.649
That's ok . Uh Yes . So it doesn't hurt

06:00.660 --> 06:03.029
anymore . Right . Enough .
