First Dental Industry Awards a great success

Dentistry Industry AwardsFind out the winners of the inaugural Dental Industry Awards.

The first Dental Industry Awards took place on the 13 November at the Marriott, Regents Park.

The concept has been created to reward excellence and share best practice in the industry and they were judged by a highly experienced cross-section of over 20 of UK dentistry’s most knowledgeable and influential clinicians and industry figures under the expert chairmanship of renowned private dentist, Dr David Houston.

At the lavish lunchtime ceremony in central London, Dr Houston hosted proceedings and over 160 of the dental industry’s leading figures waited anxiously to hear if they had been selected as ultimate winners in the various categories.

0260The overall number and quality of entries way exceeded expectations as many of the dental industry’s most successful and innovative companies energetically participated in this first event.

Judges were looking for entries that went above and beyond the norm and were looking for evidence of joined up thinking, business planning, effectiveness and evidence of results for claims made. The entries certainly delivered on all of these counts and the judging process was reportedly an incredibly hard affair.

In commenting on the event, Dr Houston explained: ‘The Dental Industry Awards is a brand new concept designed to acknowledge excellence in the dental industry. We were amazed and impressed with the volume and quality of the entries and also delighted by the overall reaction to the innaugural event. We definitely expect the event to grow at a rapid pace and become one of the most exciting days in the dental industry calendar. The date for next year is November 16th well worth putting in the diary!’
