New Scottish Office
The new office premises of the Scottish branch of the British Dental Association were officially opened by J. Stuart Robson, President of the Association.
Telemedicine
A telemedicine link is being established between the Orthodontic Department in Altnagelvin Hospital in Northern Ireland and the Ascension Island Dental Service. Altnagelvin Hospital is the largest acute hospital in Northern Ireland outside the Belfast area.
There is only one dentist on the island — Mr Johnny Hobson, A Queen's University of Belfast graduate.
The technology will allow Mr Hobson to provide more complex orthodontic diagnoses and treatment plans than might otherwise be possible by videolinking with Ms Roslyn McMullen, Consultant Orthodontist, in Altnagelvin, who will also regularly review patients by telemedicine link, every 3—4 months.
