Practising Dentistry? Do You Have a Website?
Dr. Smile 26 April, 2008
(6) Comment Once upon a time, patients would simply attend the dental surgery closest to them whenever they needed treatment. These days this happens less and less frequently. Patients demand the highest standard of treatment at reasonable prices and they are more than happy to shop around for it.
The Internet is a research tool, allowing people to find out all sorts of diverse information from the comfort of their home. Every industry is now embracing its potential, and there are many dentists doing the same thing.
Even a very basic website can carry a great deal of important information. Visitors to the website can see at a glance the location of your practice, directions on how to get there (and perhaps a map), opening times and contact details. Most practices allow contact via email as well as by phone, for patient convenience.

£7,000 dental research funds up for grabs
Dr. Smile 8 April, 2008
(1) Comment A scholarship award worth £7,000 for research in primary dental care is available.
The Faculty of General Dental Practice (UK) (FGDP (UK)) and the British Society for General Dental Surgery (BSGDS) are inviting applications for the 2008 BSGDS Scholarship Award.
Established by the BSGDS in 1993, the scholarship supports a single research project in primary dental care and is awarded every two years.
The successful recipient of the 2008 scholarship, which is aided by sponsorship from KaVo Dental Ltd, will receive money to fund their project.
Applications are invited from general dental practitioners with at least four years’ experience in a primary care setting, and should be submitted by completing the FGDP (UK)/BSGD protocol submission form.
The closing date for applications is 9 June 2008, and the winning protocol will be selected by a panel of members from the FGDP (UK) Board and BSGDS Executive Committee.
