According to the British Dental Association (BDA), this year’s con- ference programme features more than 130 sessions, presented by speakers from all around Britain and elsewhere, on a wide range of clinical aspects, such as implant maintenance, facial aesthetics and oral cancer management. Topical issues, such as the prototypes for a reformed NHS dental contract, will be discussed too. Christopher Orr, Gary DeWood, Linda Greenwall, Subir Banerji and Finlay Sutton are among the experts sharing their experience this year. A president’s lecture on Friday afternoon, held by Welsh psychol- ogist Cliff Arnall on behalf of in- comingBDAPresidentStuartJohn- ston, will reflect upon stress, its negative impact on well-being and achieving a calmer, more fulfilling life. “Cliff’s lecture ‘Dental mental: The psychology of passion, flexi- bility and stress’will not only offer insight into dealing with some of thesecomplexitiesbutpromisesto be entertaining as well,” Johnston said.
