IN-PERSON EVENT, hosted by Northern Ireland Branch

What to expect

The student session will be given by Benevolent Fund trustees, Peter Crooks and Derek Manson, who will give a short talk about the support the BDA Benevolent Fund can offer dental students who are experiencing financial hardship. Followed by BDA Reps, Alexandra Schaefer and Dara McPeake, who will share their experiences of representing QUB on the BDA Students Committee and the Future Leaders Programme.

Later in the evening, join Nick Wright for an overview of new techniques and treatments that are carried out at a high street specialist endodontic practice. Throughout the lecture, Nick will also be sharing tips for successful endodontics.

BDA members are invited to join the Northern Ireland Branch AGM, an important opportunity to hear about Branch achievements, future plans, and key decisions. Participation helps shape the direction of the organisation and ensures your voice is heard.

There will be a fundraising stall selling Richard Graham’s book “A History of the Northern Ireland Branch of the British Dental Association” with all proceeds going to the Benevolent Fund.

All talks were excellent - so well delivered and very useful.
