Learn about “The Psychology of Progressive Smile Design” at the BACD Annual

Conference

On Thursday 7th

November 2013 Dr’s Tif Qureshi and Anoop Maini will present a lecture

entitled “The Psychology of Progressive Smile Design” as part of the BACD’s 10th

Annual

Conference.

Tif Qureshi says:

“The lecture will very much be looking at the psychology of patients’ decision making,

learning where we have come from, and looking at how we have changed and are now

focussing more on a staged, step-by-step approach.

“In the talk I will be talking about removable appliances, and Anoop will then focus on fixed

appliances and treatments. We will both showcase a number of cases that could have very

easily gone down a traditional route for smile design, but instead we achieved what we

believed to be better results in a conservative, minimally invasive way.”

This year’s BACD Annual Conference will be held on Thursday 7th

, Friday 8th

and

Saturday 9th

November 2013 at the Hilton London Metropole Hotel. For further

Chris Orr to open the BACD’s 10th

Annual Conference

The BACD’s 10th

Anniversary Conference will be held on Thursday 7th

, Friday 8th

and

Saturday 9th

November 2013 at the Hilton London Metropole Hotel. The event will feature a

line-up of international and home-grown speakers covering a range of subjects from short-

term orthodontics to posterior composites and facial aesthetics.

To open the event, past President and founding member Chris Orr will present a lecture on

Perspectives in Cosmetic Dentistry. He says:

‘When we started the BACD, cosmetic dentistry was very different to how it is today. The

overall “look” we are trying to achieve nowadays – the aesthetic goals – have not really

changed, but the means by which we achieve those goals have changed dramatically. In my

talk I will review the techniques and materials of the last 10 years, and discuss how today’s

techniques for minimising intervention have changed the way dentists approach the task of

smile design. I will then discuss the BACD’s role in shaping cosmetic dentistry in the UK

today, and will look ahead to speculate on the developments the next ten years may hold.’

Peter says:

‘The BACD Annual Conference is always very good. The quality of the lecturers is excellent.

The people who come along to the meetings are all dedicated to providing outstanding

dentistry for their patients, and they all want to learn more to improve their skills. For me this

is great, as it’s a pleasure to present to such an enthusiastic audience. I am really looking

forward to this year’s event!’
