The Dentistry Show does it again!

With over 8,000* dental professionals in attendance, The Dentistry Show 2015 proved an even bigger success than previous years. First-class education was provided by some of the most renowned speakers in the industry, including John Kanca, Walter Devoto, Sanjay Sethi, Martin trope, Sheila Scott, Christina Chatfield, Morag Powell, Julian Webber, Ian Dunn and Sanjeev Bhanderi, to name but a few. With two-day lecture programmes dedicated to each area of dentistry, as well as more than 400 leading exhibitors, there was definitely something for everyone.

A Year of Firsts

Brand new features introduced to the 2015 event all proved hugely popular:

• The EndoLounge, provided in conjunction with the British Endodontic Society, allowed those delegates who wanted more in-depth knowledge on the subject, the time and space for exploration.
• The Facial Aesthetics Theatre was another greatly received new feature, designed in association with CCR. Topics covered everything from maximising indemnity insurance to skin rejuvenation and the world-class presenters had their audience engrossed.
• The Compliance Clinic, hosted by Apolline, offered a popular two-day programme dedicated to helping professionals face the challenges of regulatory compliance head-on.
• Launchpad UK was one of the top highlights for owners and managers of both dental practices and laboratories, with more than 100 innovations unveiled by globally leading manufacturers and suppliers.
• The National Dental Nursing Conference, designed by the British Association of Dental Nursing (BADN), was held at the show for the first time, ensuring a relevant and inspirational educational programme for all nurses in attendance.
• The Dental Update Study Day was held at The Dentistry Show for the first time this year, providing an inspirational day of lectures led by Professor Trevor Burke, Professor Avjitit Banerjee, Professor Crispian Scully and Professor Jonathan Sandler. Thought-provoking topics were discussed including minimal intervention dentistry, the impact of emerging oral diseases and the future of amalgam replacements.

Further Highlights

The Association of Dental Administrators and Managers (ADAM) attended The Dentistry Show for the first time in history, leading a popular discussion session in the Dental Business Theatre on Practice Management Today. Chaired by Sheila Scott and led by a panel of leading lawyers and business experts, the session highlighted the importance of effective patient communication, as well as exploring delegates’ concerning regarding employment law and contractual issues.

As well as many ‘firsts’ that set it apart from other annual meetings, The Dentistry Show 2015 also presented key features enjoyed by delegates in previous years. These included the BSP PerioLounge, Short-Term-Ortho Lounge, ADI Implant Theatre and Core CPD Theatre, each bringing something different to the table and ensuring all delegates’ needs were met.

Of her overall experience, Darshna Haria, Associate Dentist at Clocktower Dental Practice commented:

“I have really enjoyed the speaker sessions, from oral cancer and compliance to the hands-on meetings. I will definitely be attending next year; it’s great to be able to hear all the educational elements and be encouraged to learn and develop.”

Matthew Brooks, Dentist, added:

“The Dentistry Show is a regular event for me. I like to see the latest clinically and combine that with some CPD. It’s a great show for researching new products – I’d recommend it to any dentist.”

Aside from the abundant free learning and networking opportunities, the prestigious Dental Awards were also presented at The Dentistry Show 2015. Held by Purple Media Solutions, a fantastic night was had by all in celebration of individuals’ and teams’ achievement across the country. Congratulations to all the winners!
