Trip to Turku

I have just got back from an amazing weekend in Turku, Finland where I was attending the everStick 10-year anniversary. “everStick” is a product that we use in dentistry to restore very broken down teeth, often avoiding the need for a laboratory made crown. It is an amazing product and it is transforming the way that we think about dentistry.

I was lucky enough to be involved in the presentations through my work with Jansie van Rensburg who has been working with these fibres for many years. Jansie and I gave a brief lecture each to a group of interested dentists, here in the UK before we went to Finland and the response on both occasions was very positive. We hope to give many more lectures and hands on courses over the next few months and years and I hope to return to Finland soon to further my skills in this very exciting area in dentistry.

Clearly it wasn’t all work over in Turku and we were treated to a splendid day touring the stunning archipelago that surrounds this south west coast of Finland. I’ve posted a photo of this trip, just to show that I do occasionally leave my surgery.
