Uni announce new Dental School

Last updated: Mon 20th Oct 2008 at 10:52

A new £9m facility will merge with the existing dental facilities to form a new School of Dental Education, and will provide free routine NHS dental care to adults and children.

Scheduled to open in 2010, the centre will be at the leading edge of dental education, providing training of dentists, dental therapists, hygienists and dental nurses.

The centre will see teams of final year dental students performing treatment on members of the public under supervision of staff from the school.

It will provide NHS treatment to communities in Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight where, in some areas, oral health is significantly poorer than the national average.
