About this episode
Access to dentistry isn't easy when you live in a remote community. Something as minor as a chipped tooth could mean driving hundreds of kilometres to the nearest town for expensive treatment that not everyone can afford. But there is one Australian who is doing something about it! Today we are speaking to Dr Jalal Khan, whose dental surgery on wheels, called "The Dental Truck", is making oral healthcare accessible in Australia's most remote areas. From travellings thousands of kilometres into the Outback, to granting a dying man's wish to eat a final steak, Jalal has plenty of stories to share.
Guest: Jalal Khan, Founder @ The Dental Truck
