Restorative/Paediatric Dentistry Update and Back-to-Practice Course Declared a resounding success

In June 2011, the Dublin Dental University Hospital (DDUH) ran a Restorative/Paediatric Dentistry Update and Back-to-Practice Course, organized by Dr Frank Quinn, the Continuing Dental Education Coordinator.

Five students undertook an intensive week of seminars and hands-on practice in the DDUH, provided by senior staff, Dr. Hal Duncan, Dr. Philip Hardy, Dr. Osama Omer, Dr Frank Quinn, Dr. David Finucane and Dr. Michael O’Sullivan. Nursing support was provided by Anne McCourt.
