In 2007, the Singapore Armed Forces deployed a Dental Project Team (DPT) to the capital city of the Bamiyan Province in Afghanistan. The team set up the province's first modern dental facility. Besides providing primary dental care to the 60,000 population there, the Singaporeans also trained and prepared a team of Afghan dentist and dental assistants. The Afghan dental team took over the dental clinic and continued to provide care when it was time for the DPT to depart for home. Braving challenging security and austere living conditions, the DPT completed its mission successfully.
2007年，新加坡武装部队向阿富汗巴米扬省的省会派遣了一个牙科项目团队（DPT）。该团队建立了该省首个现代化牙科设施。除了为当地6万人口提供基本牙科护理外，新加坡人还培训并组建了一支阿富汗牙医和牙科助理团队。当牙科项目团队准备回国时，阿富汗牙科团队接管了牙科诊所并继续提供护理服务。尽管面临着具有挑战性的安全状况和艰苦的生活条件，牙科项目团队还是成功完成了任务。
