Question time | British Dental Journal


Play all audios:

Sir, at the present time in dentistry, in response to the pandemic, I think we need to ask ourselves three fundamental questions: * Was dentistry safe and has it become dangerous? * Was


dentistry complex and will it become more simple? * Was dentistry effective and will it become less effective? These questions were posed originally by Jane Dacre President of the Royal


College of Physicians in 2017 in relation to medicine and used by myself in a presentation to the local BDA Group in Nottingham later that year in September 2017. AUTHOR INFORMATION AUTHORS
