The wait is nearly over – after weeks of deliberation, our judges have made their choices.
The quality of entries has been so high this year that it was far from an easy task, but we can finally announce the finalists that will be duking it out for a prestigious Dentistry Award.
As the tension builds, all eyes are turning towards Leicester, where the winners will be revealed amidst a blaze of glamour at the official ceremony on 12 December.
