An experience designed for DCPs, by DCPs

The ADI Team Congress 2022 is specifically designed to be an educational event for the entire dental implant team. There is a full day programme dedicated to team members, which has been optimised to meet the needs, interests and ambitions of dental hygienists and therapists, dental nurses and practice managers. To design the programme a new ADI Sub-committee was created, formed of past DCP Representative Julia Wilson, as well as the highly esteemed Natasha Donnelly and Fiona Sandom.

Julia summaries the event perfectly:

“In the world of implant dentistry, which in itself has really become revolutionary over the last few years, it’s crucial that all DCPs play a greater role in this ever-changing field! The ADI Team Congress is legendary and a wonderful opportunity for education, inspiration and team building – delegates will go home with new ideas and fabulous memories of Manchester.

“I would urge all DCPs to book early to avoid disappointment. We will hopefully soon come out of these challenging times so it’s time to welcome the return of our ADI Team Congress and, just as importantly, it’s time to party!”

Reflecting on what they were hoping to achieve for the Team Programme and how it was put together, Natasha comments:

“The term ‘DCP’ encompasses so many different roles in dentistry, including dental hygienists and therapists, practice managers, dental technicians and dental nurses. It is important to have these voices come together to make events relevant and enjoyable to all. Different roles in practice are looking for different things from events that the ADI hosts and I think we have achieved the objectives of team members in being able to work on the 2022 programme as a new dedicated Sub-committee. I have really enjoyed being able to help shape the programme and I hope delegates enjoy the programme just as much.”

Fiona adds:

“We have developed a programme that is both educational and inspiring to the unique individuals that work in this field of dentistry. Working with colleagues in this group was a great experience and I would also like to thank them for making it a very enjoyable experience!”

There will be a huge amount of learning and networking opportunities for all members of the dental team to utilise at the ADI Team Congress 2022. The Team Programme will consist of sessions for all DCPs to attend together, as well as those dedicated to each role for a more focused learning experienced. Natasha highlights what she believes delegates will gain from attending:

“I hope delegates will take away new ideas that will help improve their practice and their team, as well as helping them better appreciate the importance of every role in the dental implant patient journey.”

For Fiona, the goal is to inspire colleagues:

“We want to satisfy those that attend with an interesting and educational programme that will offer useful information to be taken back to practice for the delivery of great patient care and increased job satisfaction. I also want to inspire the audience to become more involved in the ADI and other professional organisations, ultimately empowering DCPs in their roles ADI membership brings an insight and feeling of inclusion to this area of dentistry – I very much like the team feeling of the ADI and would love for more DCPs to make use of this.

“I believe that this Team Congress will bring so much to those that attend and following the delay in this event I am super excited to be meeting with friends and colleagues face to face once again. It is also great value for money, when you look at the programme, high profile speakers and great topics!”

The ADI Team Congress 2022 will offer even more than the highly anticipated education. There will be plenty of chances to engage with the wider profession, meet with friends and enjoy some downtime with a diverse social programme including Congress Drinks and the Congress Dinner – this year themed “The Roaring Twenties”. Julia comments:

“The ADI social programme is always an unforgettable and awesome event. It is the jewel in the crown and provides a great end to a most wonderful Congress. This year is certainly one not to be missed!”

Discounted access to the ADI Team Congress is just one benefit of ADI membership for team members. As Fiona as already mentioned, joining the community provides opportunities to grow as an individual and connect with like-minded colleagues. About membership Natasha adds:

“ADI membership provides a great chance for progression in the dental implant field, along with a chance to join other members who are as passionate about this topic.”
