With dental practices re-openning, there is likely to be a huge backlog of patients who are going to have their dental appointments delayed and rescheduled over the coming weeks and months. It is now more important than ever to keep the public and our patients informed on how to maintain good oral hygiene.

Although we are in very uncertain times, at DNN we feel it is even more important than ever to remember why we are in the dental care profession. For this month's Inspiration Q&A, we have interviewed Sarah, our new Oral Health Educator Assessor. 

Due to the effects of Covid-19 or coronavirus on dental practices, DNN is offering a free six-month extension on the completion of record of competence assessments and IPC lead assessments to all students who started any DNN certificate course* from January 2020. DNN will grant longer extensions if required. 

We are still taking course bookings. During this time students can complete theoretical learning and complete the assessments when they are back in clinic.
