Peru
We are currently working in Peru with ATEK and the local dental community to reach the mountain Quechua peoples. ATEK is an interdenominational Christian organization which was established to work with the Quechua community in Southern Peru to facilitate the spiritual and social development of the Peruvian people.
IDM works alongside the ATEK staff in remote Quechua villages extracting teeth and sharing the reality of Christ. We use this unique opportunity of relieving pain to support the local church in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Our current plans include returning to the same communities in Peru on a yearly basis.
At this time, IDM provides oral surgery, limited dental hygiene services and dental education to the Quechua people. We hope to broaden services to these people as the communities become more educated about the reality of maintaining functional dentition for a lifetime.
