MANCHESTER – Staff and patients from the University Dental Hospital of Manchester are the subject of a new observational documentary airing on ITV in mid-June. The hospital is one of the leading clinical dental facilities in the UK and the film will follow patients being treated, including those undergoing cutting-edge dental and facial reconstructions. “The Dentists” will also highlight the problem of children and adults needing numerous teeth extracted.
The film-makers spent eight weeks at the dental hospital, which is staffed by Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Manchester’s School of Dentistry. The crew watched operations and followed both routine and more complex procedures.
Dr Mike Pemberton, Clinical Head of Division at the University Dental Hospital of Manchester, said: “I welcome the opportunity this programme allows to showcase the care, dedication and professionalism delivered by the staff working in the dental hospital. The programme highlights the varied nature of the dentistry we undertake and will help the public to understand our work better.”
Prof. Paul Coulthard, Head of the School of Dentistry at the University of Manchester, said: “The Dentists provides insight into the range of dental care offered by the University Dental Hospital of Manchester. This innovative care is developed in partnership with the School of Dentistry, which is responsible for training dentists and produces world-class research that is at the forefront of changing practice around the world.”
The documentary will be aired on ITV1 on Monday, 16 June, at 9 p.m.
