UP FACULTY OF DENTISTRY HOSTS 4 STUDENTS FROM MAHSA UNIVERSITY IN MALAYSIA

UP recently hosted 4 senior dental students from MAHSA University in Malaysia for 2 weeks. The students, 3 females and 1 male, were first-time visitors to Cambodia, and apart from the time spend in the UP Dental Clinic, they also took the opportunity to travel to Siem Reap and Sihanoukville. The students spent most of the time at UP observing and assisting in the clinic, and were able to see some types of treatment they had not seen in Malaysia. One highlight of their visit was a trip to Prey Sor Prison with our own UP dental students and tutors. UP has an MOU with MAHSA University and we are currently collaborating with them on research into betel quid chewing and oral cancer.
