SYDNEY, Australia: Seeking to strengthen existing ties, the Australian Dental Industry Association (ADIA) and the British Dental Industry Association (BDIA) will be signing a cooperative agreement this week. Formalising their informal working relationship of more than 50 years, the new agreement is intended to aid in mutual interests through the sharing of information, working with regulatory offices and promoting their respective members’ products overseas.
“The dental industry in Australia and Britain jointly understand the importance of the role that industry has in supporting dental professionals to deliver optimal oral health. This is achieved through the investment by dental product manufacturers in new and innovative patient treatment options and in this area there is so much that the ADIA and BDIA membership can learn from each other,” said ADIA CEO Troy Williams.
ADIA and the BDIA share the policy objective of achieving convergence of the regulations for the market approval of medical devices. According to ADIA, given that in Australia and in Britain the regulatory framework for the approval of medical devices is based upon that of the European Union, the two organisations will benefit owing to a broad understanding and different perspectives on the same regulatory approach.
“In the context of Brexit it’s likely that, in many respects, Britain’s dental product regulatory framework may eventually look increasingly like that of Australia. We expect that in the coming years, just like in Australia, the regulations will be based heavily upon those of Europe but with some opportunities for important changes that reflect local conditions,” said BDIA Chief Executive Edmund Proffitt.
As part of their collaborative work, both organisations will be hosting national pavilions at key international dental trade shows, such as the International Dental Show in Cologne in Germany and the International Dental Exhibition and Meeting in Singapore. The agreement will be signed at ADX18 Sydney, Australia’s premier dental event and the nation’s largest healthcare trade show.
