A 5-year-old Guatemalan girl told Dr. Richard L. Call, a dentist from Westminster, Colo., in a Hirsche Smiles Foundation temporary dental clinic in Guatemala in May,” I just want to eat my food and not have it hurt. Can you help me?” Call said, “When I looked inside her mouth, I found 12 abscessed teeth. The rest all had cavities. Broke my heart.”
