Aspiring Dentists – July 2024
Posted on 19th July 2024
The Talent Academies Aspiring Dentists event returned to Lincoln County Hospital in July. This free event provided an opportunity for young people aged 15-19 years to participate in hands-on skills workshops and informative talks led by dental experts. These experts discussed their journeys in dentistry and offered guidance to those aiming to pursue a career in the field.
With the support of the Lincolnshire Local Dental Committee, attendees learned about the essential skills and knowledge required for a career focused on preventing, diagnosing, and treating dental issues within communities.
