The document summarizes an Alaska Global Outreach Program run by AT Still University's Arizona School of Dentistry and Oral Health. It provides statistics showing that Alaska Natives have significantly higher rates of dental cavities and untreated tooth decay compared to national averages. The program details treating children in the villages of Fort Yukon and Arctic Village, providing services like exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, x-rays, sealants, fillings and extractions. Funds were used to purchase a portable x-ray system and laptop to support the annual Alaska Outreach program and care at a special clinic.
