Dean of the Faculty of Dental Surgery, Professor Philip Taylor, has now released his manifesto for the Faculty covering 2020 – 2023. With over 7,000 Affiliates, Associates, Members and Fellows, the Faculty today represents a significant part of the UK’s dental workforce. The Dean’s manifesto covers several key areas of focus for Faculty over the next three years including:
- Asking the Government through all of the devolved NHS bodies to change the focus of health and social care policy delivery to the prevention of dental disease.
- Creating an understanding across the health sector as a whole that dentistry is an important component of total body health.
- The Faculty of Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh will request to be involved in any future policy decision making across the four nations of the UK.
