On 2nd October we held our annual Dental Scrubs Ceremony, in the Reception Room, Wills Memorial Building.
The Dental Scrubs ceremony marks the first significant milestone in our students’ professional journey, when they receive their dental scrubs and reflect on their new role and responsibilities as dental professionals.
Bristol Dental School is the only Dental school in the UK that holds a Dental Scrubs ceremony.
Following a welcome address by Prof Barry Main, Head of School, Bristol Dental School, the topic of professionalism was discussed by Dr Neville, including reference to the Dental School’s Uniform and Dress Policy. The morning event culminated in the students receiving their scrubs.
Dr Neville would like to thank all the students for their participation during the event, and especially to Prof Barry Main, Mrs Alison Grant, Assoc Prof Nilu Ahmed, Dr Alan Buckingham, and Dr Mark Rampersad for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend this event. A special word of thanks to Marta Sikorska and Kathryn Jury for their administrative support with the event.
