Interested in being part of Teeth Team? Wonderful! It’s a great way to reach out to your community and ensure local pupils are getting the dental care they need as well as the dental education that will carry them forward into a lifetime of good dental health. Best of all, it’s free publicity for you and your practice and a chance to make positive connections with local families. All we ask for is a little of your time.
