Diploma in Restorative Dentistry reunion
Invitation to Diploma participants to join a gathering of alumni.
The College of General Dentistry (CGDent) has issued an open invitation to all those who participated in the Diploma in Restorative Dentistry programme of the former Faculty of General Dental Practice UK (FGDP) to join a special gathering of alumni.
The gathering will mark 20 years of the landmark programme, and past candidates and diplomates will be joined by a number of past directors and examiners of the programme, including Paul Brunton, David Cheshire, Phil Dawson FCGDent, Nick Lewis FCGDent, Mike Mulcahy FCGDent and Ian Wood FCGDent.
The reunion will take place on Friday 13 June 2025 in The Old Banqueting Hall within the historic Cutlers’ Hall in Sheffield, and will be incorporated within both the Inaugural College of General Dentistry Lecture and College Summer Reception.
The lecture, ‘Satisficing’ standards in dentistry: Who decides? Who benefits?, will be delivered by Martin Kelleher FCGDent, Consultant in Restorative Dentistry at King’s College Dental Hospital. Registration on the day opens at 2pm, with the lecture starting at 2.30pm and the event concluding at 4.30pm after Q&A/discussion.
The Summer Reception will follow from 5pm to 8pm, with registration from 4.30pm. Incorporating the fourth annual College Fellows’ Summer Reception, this is an opportunity for dental professionals to network with their peers and will include the ceremonial admission of new Fellows and Associate Fellows, the presentation of the President’s Award and the announcement of the 2025 winner of the College Medal (tbc). There will be an opportunity for a range of alumni photos, and photos with other guests, all of which will be made available to attendees shortly afterwards to download free of charge.
