Big congratulations to the DClin Dents who recently received a Doctorate of Clinical Dentistry (DClinDent) in Oral Surgery in October 2024.

Every smile is beautiful- and so is yours- don’t be afraid to show it! World Oral Health Day celebrated annually on March 20th provided the ideal opportunity to raise awareness of the importance oral health, to general health, mental wellbeing and quality of life, emphasising, the mind, body, and mouth connection.   Lead by DentSoc dental nursing, dental hygiene and dentistry students, with staff from Cork University Dental School and Hospital (CUDSH) as a Team had a wonderful opportunity to engage with each other and with the public in Cork University Hospital (CUH) and Cork University Dental School and Hospital (CUDSH). University College Cork (UCC) Department of Student Health supported the day, with information on oral health being promoted in the Student Health Department, Crow’s Nest. Dental Health Foundation, Ireland (DHF), supplied leaflets and posters tailored to the promotion of oral health in Ireland.
