The British Dental Hygienists' Association (BDHA) headed north of the border to Edinburgh for their 2004 annual conference recently.

The conference, now called the Oral Health Conference and Annual General Assembly of Members, was held on the 12th and 13th November at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre. The conference programme brought together a mix of speakers, a large trade exhibition, time to network with colleagues and a Scottish themed dinner.

One of the key speakers at the conference was the Deputy Chief Dental Officer of England, Barry Cockcroft who brought delegates up to date on the latest changes and in particular the Section 60 Order consultation.
