Anger at IOTN introduction in Scotland

Labour has accused the Scottish Government of ‘sneaking’ out an announcement on the introduction of IOTN that, they say, could force parents to pay thousands to fix their children’s teeth.

John Milne, Chair of the BDA’s General Dental Practice Committee,

Go to Tokyo for ugly teeth

A rather bizarre story comes to us from Japan where a dental clinic has started supplying fake crooked teeth to those with more traditional ‘Hollywood smile’. Dental Salon Plaisir says its ‘Stick-on Crooked Teeth’ will impart that desirable ‘imperfect’ look to men and women alike, making them more attractive to the opposite sex.

By Chris Tapper   One working day in April 2018, precisely at 4.50pm, ten minutes before the unseemly scramble by the dentists to get out the door to avoid the dry-retching of the nurse’s as they clean the filters out, I was presented with a sheet of paper. A nurse delivered the A4 sheet with a...

What people are saying about GDPUK

Audeon Healy

"And congratulation to Tony Jacobs and GDPUK for providing the forum which is evidently producing the best minds and speakers in our profession today."

Jennifer Pinder

"I work with people who arent generally in the loop about whats happening outside the 4 walls of the practice in dentistry. This forum has proved invaluable as a source of keeping up to date, and I often find now that when I get the Dental journals I already know a lot of the news ! Ive got clinical support, social support, personal support from here."

Natasha Vadasz

The dentistry I do and the way my practice runs has changed so much for the better in the last year and its thanks to GDPUK. I have learnt more from the contributors here in the last year than in than 10-20 years of courses/reading prior to joining.
