This is Pita's 92-year-old great-grandmother. Survivor of the Civil War in Cambodia, she suffered an empty stomach until 40. Even her daughter, Pita's grandmother, was threatened by death for eating raw rice while being forced to work in the fields by the government. She later gave birth to Thom, Pita's uncle, in a tree hole to avoid the bullets during the war. 

These difficult conditions served negatively towards their oral health as her grandmother has never brushed her teeth and began experiencing chewing issues at a young age.

Pita, now a student and missionary of BEST, will become the first generation in her village to develop good oral habits and create a new way of life.
