How to use this section
​

This is a site to help improve our skills. It will be updated regularly with feedback from all  dentists at different points in their career path. The majority of recently qualified will be getting less practical experience than ever due to Covid, and those who have more experience who want to both share and improve their skills.

The pressure put upon the average GDP from both the NHS, and often corporates is not sustainable. We need to have acceptable standards, and support  that is fair to the public and ourselves. The aim of this site is a go to resource for the FD,  their trainers, and other GDPs who need a quick refresher or a guidance into enhancing their preferred skills. 
I was a trainer for twenty years, and enjoyed it immensely. I couldn't do it now though, the twenty page VDP plastic folder has been replaced by a huge cloud with an infinite storage space for reflections., leaving little time for experience. So a big thank you to all the FD trainers, I hope you find this useful.

DENTISTS 

When I Qualified in 1982 there were textbooks, and slides. I did Dentistry thinking when I qualified I'd never need to open another book.
I have repeatedly asked HEE for lessons on IT, as we are in the communication business, as well as health. We need to promote the health message, and handing out a pamphlet is no longer enough, and more expensive. Everything on IT is self learnt, and more recently through YouTube for free.
​Why not dentistry?​

TRAINERS

My aim is to support FDs and recently qualified dentists.
Generally I found the first six months very time consuming, and then a gradual decline in tutorial subjects. It would be useful for the FDs to discuss with their trainers on specific video instructions generally available on YouTube. To critically appraise them, and use the best as a continued resource. If a better one is found, then it will be replaced.
​If a group of FDS from different dental schools have a project to view videos, and then forward the details of what alongside the trainers they consider the best. I can put is on the site as a video for all of us.​
