St George’s Hall, Liverpool was the location for the 2018 British Society of Prosthodontics (BSSPD) annual conference; Achieving Favourable Outcomes: Contemporary Practice. Lectures were delivered in the magnificent Concert Hall and the meeting was well attended by Birmingham Dental School and Hospital staff presenting a total of 8 posters in the Grand Hall of the venue. Two Birmingham graduates, James Chesterman and Funmi Oluwajana, were also in attendance and it was a great opportunity to catch up and chat about their careers after Birmingham. Dr Upen Patel was voted in as a BSSPD council member and will be working with the council to navigate new policies on Data Protection and eCPD for the BSSPD and its members, as well as continue to provide high quality webinars and dental education for the coming year. Mr Dominic Laverty, Specialty Registrar in Restorative Dentistry at Birmingham, won the BSSPD In-Training Award allowing him to carry out further study in Edmonton, Canada. Overall an excellent conference and a good opportunity for us to update ourselves with the most recent evidence and contemporary practices in Dentistry. Hope you enjoy the pictures. The BSSPD President, Dr Phil Smith, commented on the high turn out of delegates from Birmingham.
