Boosting oral health in the community

With its first anniversary celebrated in March this year, Heart Your Smile chose the recent BDA as the venue to launch a number of new initiatives – the first of which is Innovation 360°.

Established to generate a more positive perception of dentistry both from within and outside the profession, Heart Your Smile now has hundreds of dental professionals signed up to their ‘manifesto’; the nine habits of a happy professional.

Its newest initiative, Innovation 360° has been established with the aim of providing a practical solution to the difficulties sometimes faced by practices, who have fun and fantastic ideas for oral health initiatives, but face a struggle to get their ideas off the ground. Whether it be due to lack of funds, lack of time or just because they don’t know where to start, it is an unfortunate fact that sometimes the best ideas are also the best kept secrets!

Innovation 360° provides an answer to this problem by offering practical and financial help to dental teams wanting to connect with patients in an innovative way and take dentistry beyond the boundaries of their surgery doors.
