Young Dentist Conference

Over 200 delegates attended the 10th annual Young Dentist Conference at the Royal College of Physicians earlier this year.

The Conference is organised by Dental Protection in conjunction with the British Dental Association and the British Dental Journal. The programme is dedicated to the specific needs of dentists in their first five years of practice.

This year’s programme featured a panel of five excellent speakers and we invited three of them to summarise some of the key points of their presentation to share with those of you who were not able to attend.

Reena Wadia, a young dentist with a passion for communication shared her top tips for success Julie Cross is an oral surgeon and she described the importance of being prepared for the tooth that breaks during extraction Simon Stone discussed the predictability of root canal treatment in general dental practice and knowing when to involve a specialist.
