Have you submitted your entry for the 2023 Private Dentistry Awards yet?
With the entry deadline looming on 15 September 2023, now is the ideal time to start putting your thoughts down and collating everything detailed in the criteria for your chosen categories. More on that later!
Recognising outstanding dentistry carried out across the UK and Ireland by teams and individuals, the Private Dentistry Awards have gone from strength to strength and earned a solid reputation since their inception in 2000.
Over the last 23 years, we have witnessed many developments with the awards. The categories and judging panel have expanded, the quality – not to mention quantity – of entries has increased, and the award ceremonies have become bigger and better!
Unmissable celebration
One of the things that has not changed, however, is the integrity and vision of the judging panel chair, David Houston. David has chaired the judging panel since the inception of the Private Dentistry Awards, and we are indebted to him for the support, dedication and experience he always offers.
Over the years, the award ceremony has built itself a reputation as being one of the most enjoyable and prestigious events in the dental calendar. The Private Dentistry Awards ceremonies have always been held across London, in various luxurious venues, but when they went from an afternoon event to an evening festivity, they were taken to the next level.
Indeed, the Private Dentistry Awards have long been a highlight on the dental calendar – and this year’s celebrations are set to be no different. Don’t miss what is sure to be an unmissable celebration for the whole practice team!
This year, we’re heading to Grosvenor House in London for the ceremony on Friday 1 December. As always, you have to be in it to win it – here’s how you can get involved and be part of the action!
