Abstract

Prevention is a core element of routine dental practice. However, members of the dental team often lack the required knowledge and skills to deliver effective evidence-based advice and support to patients. This paper describes the development and delivery of an innovative course designed to develop the preventive capacity of dental teams working in dental foundation training practices across London. The course contents were based upon national guidelines on evidence-based preventive care delivered in primary dental care settings (Delivering better oral health). An experienced team of trainers from diverse backgrounds successfully designed and delivered the courses and the initial feedback from participants indicate strong support for the approach developed.
