The College held the Online Dental Symposium 'Lost in Space - Management of missing teeth’ on 19 September. The event attracted over 90 participants and was hosted by Dr. Lochana Nanayakkara, Consultant in Restorative Dentistry and Honorary Senior Lecturer, who also serves as the Convenor of Dental Education at RCSEd.
The panel of speakers included Consultants and Professors in Paediatric Dentistry, Orthodontics and Restorative Dentistry. The team explored the challenges and strategies for managing space loss due to congenitally missing teeth or accidental tooth loss, emphasising a collaborative approach to achieve optimal aesthetic outcomes for patients.
Dr Lochana Nanayakkara, RCSEd Convenor of Dental Education, commented: “It was a great honour to host a symposium which bought together a Multidisciplinary Team of speakers to share their experience and expertise in managing missing teeth with our truly international faculty of fellows and members. We hope the delegates found the afternoon of educational value and helpful to their clinical practice.”
