BSSPD ROADSHOW HAILED AS A SUCCESS

Friday 20th January 2012 saw the final instalment of the British Society of Prosthodontics Roadshows that have taken place throughout the length and breadth of Britain since September 2011. A series of free lectures (attracting 2 hours of verifiable CPD) were held in Manchester, Birmingham, Dundee, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Cardiff and London where over 700 delegates were not only educated but entertained by a quartet of UK speakers; Dr Robert McAndrew, Dr Janice Ellis, Mr Peter Briggs and Mr Chris Butterworth.
A live web-stream was provided between the Manchester venue and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons in Glasgow. The lectures entitled “Simply… the best; practical hints and advice for successful fixed prosthodontics”, “Difficult dentures in difficult patients –pragmatic prostho for complete denture providers”, “Sound foundations – avoiding problems with implants” and “Maxillofacial prosthodontics – managing the ravages of oro-facial malignancy” covered all aspects of fixed and removable Prosthodontics and saw the lectures deliver a number of helpful and useful hints when it comes to treating patients. The lectures were very well received by the attendees (which included not only dentists but also dental nurses along with dental and clinical dental technicians) and the desire for similar events to be organised by the society seen as confirmation of this. The first of the roadshows held in Manchester was recorded and this is to be released by the Society to view for free as a web-stream; to register for this visit www.bsspd.org/roadshows. The society would like to thank all who signed up and came along and indeed all who were involved in making this inaugural event such a resounding success; particular thanks have to be directed to Mr Brian Schottlander of the Schottlander dental company who provided sponsorship to secure the delivery of the roadshows.
