This year Iain will critically appraise the “Brave New World” of 21st Century Dentistry by discussing care pathways, risk and oral health assessment and addressing the taxing issue of “over-regulation”. He will start by discussing why everything must be measured, but how unless it is done in a “proportionate” manner, it can waste time, money and create stasis in healthcare provision. He will discuss wellness models of care and illustrate a light-touch risk-based approach to oral health assessment that has received excellent feedback from primary care pilot practices out with the NHS (published autumn 2013 in the BDJ). He will also discuss risk factors for periodontitis, per-implantitis and periodontitis as a risk factor for systemic diseases.
