BIRMINGHAM, UK: Birmingham is setting up for the first British Dental Conference and Dentistry Show, to be held in May. The organiser has now said that internationally prominent prosthodontist Dr Didier Dietschi will join the highly anticipated list of speakers for the BDA Theatre.

Dietschi will lead two talks at the show, titled “Bio-aesthetic smile rehabilitations: Restorative trends and realities” and “The interceptive treatment of tooth wear using no-prep or minimally invasive techniques”. He said that the lectures will allow attendees to identify and learn about new clinical options that fulfil the growing needs of patients for interceptive tooth wear treatment and smile rejuvenation or improvement using tissue-conserving approaches.

“I believe that due to two growing trends in ‘minimally invasive dentistry’ and ‘cost-effective aesthetic options’, the direct free-hand treatment approach shall enter into its second golden age,” Dietschi said. “During my lecture I will cover indications for direct free-hand bonding following new aesthetic standards and basic clinical protocols which make it feasible for every GDP [general dental practitioner]. There will be no complex layering techniques, but rather simple and reliable composite systems and application techniques.”

Other highlights of the BDA Theatre include a presentation titled “Effective dental management of patients in later life” by London prosthodontist Dr Charlotte Stilwell and one titled “Congratulations, you have just inherited someone else’s dental implants—Now what?” by the London Centre for Implant and Aesthetic Dentistry Clinical Director Dr Koray Feran.

Overall, the show will cover more than 100 hours of verifiable continuing professional development over two days for the whole dental practice team, the organiser said.
