Setup of Oral Care and Tobacco Cessation Center
In a transformative step toward building a tobacco-free society, I Can Win Foundation, in collaboration with Bajaj Electrical Foundation, has established a dedicated Tobacco Cessation and Oral Care Centre at Numed Hospital in 2024. This center is a one-of-its-kind facility offering comprehensive services for individuals affected by tobacco use.

Why This Centre Matters
Tobacco users often lack access to integrated care for both cessation and oral disease. This center bridges that gap by providing scientific, compassionate, and holistic care to help individuals not only quit tobacco but also recover their oral health.
