(Reuters) - Abdallah al-Baba is a young engineer who lives in the Gaza Strip area.He created a mobile dentistry unit equipped with all the necessary medical instruments for care in patients' homes or in places far from medical centers.This engineer from Gaza created a mobile dental unit so that dentists can treat patients at home in Gaza City avoiding dangers and also bringing access to medicine to the most remote areas.Abdallah al-Baba, the engineer behind the idea explained: “The idea came to me as a result of a complication.My father was injured during a weekly march in Gaza and was left paralyzed by his injury.One day, I needed to go to the dentist, and as we know, dental clinics in this country are often on upper floors with difficult access.”Regarding the mobile dentistry unit, he said that the team has all the necessary instruments and tools to set up a dental office.“So we created the mobile dental unit to treat patients at home.Also for those in the eastern part of the Strip, where there are no dental clinics and there are people who need treatment late at night, because, as we know, toothaches can be unbearable."He also highlighted that "When visiting patients at home, doctors can't do much, but with the mobile dental unit, dentists can now treat them anytime, anywhere," which will allow them to have greater access to dental medicine.Israel attacked the Gaza Strip after repelling a rocket fire against its territoryhttps://t.co/utO1Wbjwwr|Postal Address |Coronel López 2138 - 6th floor - Posadas - Misiones - Intellectual Property Registry No. 5,197,226
