Birmingham plays host to the BADT Conference this year (September 25-26) and all eyes will be on the future role of the dental therapist.

Taking place at Aston Conference Centre in the centre of the city, ‘Your Future, Your Hands’ is two day event that promises a look ahead to the future of dental therapy.

And former Chief Dental Officer for England, Barry Cockcroft (who recently joined the board of the MyDentist as a non-executive director), will discuss the part DCPs should play in improving oral health and services in the future.

The ‘future’ theme is further explored in a lecture on the dangers of posting on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook, a look at the ‘time bomb’ of perio implantitis, smile design, and a minimally invasive approach to dental therapy.

Among the speakers are Colgate’s Anousheh Alavi, Amit Patel, Nik Sethi, Leigh Hunter, and the team from social networking site, Dev and Amit Patel.

And, for this year’s conference, Friday will be dedicated to a whole day of lectures, followed by a series of hands-on workshops throughout the Saturday.
