James Cook University is bringing brighter smiles and improved oral health to the Aboriginal Community of Yarrabah through a new outreach initiative, 'Restoring the Smiles of Yarrabah Shire'. JCU's Professor John Abbott is leading the project. He said JCU Dentistry staff and students visited Yarrabah for three days in early September to run education workshops, health promotion and provide free dental examinations. The next step in the initiative begins this week. "Starting on the 13th September, JCU will operate a monthly shuttle service from Yarrabah to the JCU Dental Clinic at the Nguma-bada campus in Smithfield," said Professor Abbott.
