There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power

Alan Cohen.

Dental Nursing is in an exciting metamorphosis of change, I know that when you head for work through rain and nightmare journeys by tube and train it does not always feel that way, but it is a fact that changes are afoot.

Dental nurses are often involved in many aspects of running a practice, whether it is on the frontline assisting dentists, maintaining patient records, ordering stock, costing, and developing rapport with patients. These strong organisational skills make dental nurses a strong candidate to open and run their own practices. Have you ever thought to yourself?-'I could run this practice on my own!' Well since GDC registration was introduced this has certainly made it possible for dental nurses.
