Volume 29 · Issue 10

A major debate on the new dental contract with leading figures in the dental profession will kick off this year’s largest ever Dentistry Show when it returns to the NEC Birmingham. 

More than 6,000 dental professionals from practice teams across the UK are expected to attend the show this month which has introduced three new education streams & a host of hands-on workshops and hosting its biggest ever exhibition floor with over 380 trade suppliers. 

The panel discussion on dental contract reforms currently being piloted across the country is the curtain-raiser in the new GDP Theatre and is led by Roger Matthews, chief dental officer at Denplan; Professor Jimmy Steele, head of the School of Dental Sciences at Newcastle University; Elizabeth Lynam, head of dentistry and eye care services, medicines, pharmacy & industry group at the Department of Health, and panel chairman Ben Atkins, trustee for the British Dental Health Foundation (BDHF) and NHS dentist on the clinical pilot.

Clearly passionate about enhancing the way NHS dentistry is practised and viewed, Atkins is keen to share his experience of the contract reform so far.
