Integrated electronic health records need to cover shared medications lists as a minimum @fdiworlddental My near miss: a patient had a stroke two days before I was scheduled to give treatment and another the day after. I was about to place the local but something stopped me.

Patients are straight up dishonest at times. They hide significant medical issues so they can get treatment on their terms. Then they question why procedures didn’t go well. Unbelievable.

Good blog article with links on antibiotics, endocarditis and dentistry. In years of doing this stuff, I still don't see useful information on the unplanned bacteraemia when you're not expecting it but an instrument or orthodontic appliance cuts/pierces the mucosa. #dentistry

Finally got round to giving my blog some attention.. Latest post is about infective endocarditis and antibiotic cover atoothgerm.co.uk/2024/08/infect… #specialcaredentistry

First morning at new practice done. I was ridiculously nervous because they use different computer software to what I'm used to but I got the hang of it pretty quickly. Feeling a lot better now!

Thanks to @NEUnion and @zarahsultana for leadership on #FreeSchoolMealsforAll I wouldn’t be where I am today without free school meals. We can remove the stigma and share the benefits with all. This is prevention in action. @TheBDA

“As a father, as a grandfather and as human being, I know that no child should go hungry at school,” says @EddieCrouch “But as a health professional, it’s also about what our children are eating.” Why we’re backing #FreeSchoolMealsforAll 👉bda.org/news-and-opini…

Good to see @NHSEngland & @Asda working together to put vital mouth cancer awareness messaging on oral hygiene products. The new look products encourage shoppers to be body aware & to contact their GP or dental practice with any potential cancer symptoms.

Thanks so much to @bspdmidlands for inviting me to speak at their Summer Study Day. Some great talks on decolonising the curriculum, AAC and Makaton, and fostering psychological safety in dental teams.
