The OHC approaches!

  Posted by: Dental Design      9th October 2021

It’s almost time for the British Society of Dental Hygiene and Therapy (BSDHT) to host their highly anticipated event – the Oral Health Conference (OHC)!
Taking place on November 26-27 at the SEC in Glasgow, this year’s show has a lot to offer and is a must-visit event for dental hygienists, dental therapists and students of the profession.
So, what can you look forward at this year’s show?

Exceptional educational seminars, workshops and more
At the core of the OHC has always been the diverse and exciting educational programme that allows professionals to keep up to date with the latest topics, research and approaches in the industry.
This year, the theme of the show is based around the concept of SEE and be seen – with SEE standing for Skills, Engagement, Evolve. As such, educational sessions have been chosen to help promote these three areas, with every talk geared towards helping professionals to branch out in their roles, acquire new skills and learn how to engage the community and other members of the dental team.
There are a number of standout presentations planned that cover both clinical topics and more general life skills that professionals can benefit from. For example, on the clinical side there are seminars exploring subjects such as soft tissue abnormalities and preserving pulp vitality, while more general sessions such as those focusing on how to give a good presentation teach skills that are valuable for all. This way, delegates can select their own educational path through the event, choosing the sessions that appeal most to them and the direction they want to take in their career.
Alongside these educational seminars, there are also a number of hands-on workshops, product demonstrations and more, meaning that there is never a dull moment and always new knowledge to pursue!

Mix and mingle – meeting in person is back!
After a long period of not being able to meet in person, the OHC gives professionals the chance to network and meet new contacts, spend time with friends and colleagues and truly feel immersed in the community of professionals that makes this industry so great.
There are plenty of social events planned for the OHC this year, with all of them giving you the opportunity to truly enjoy being back in the centre of the action. From a fun night in the Grand Central Hotel for the yearly dinner and dance, to morning Pilates sessions and more – this year’s programme is optimised to ensure that it’s not all work and no play, so delegates can truly enjoy rediscovering why events are such an integral and exciting part of the profession.
