We’re delighted to share that Tempdent will be exhibiting at the BDIA Dental Showcase in London on 13–14 March 2026. As one of the UK’s leading events for dental professionals, the Showcase offers the perfect opportunity for practices, learners and training leads to explore the latest developments in dentistry, and we’re excited to be part of it once again.
You’ll find the Tempdent team at Stand F14, where we’ll be available throughout both days to talk about our newest training programmes, apprenticeships and recruitment services designed to support every type of dental practice.
We’re pleased to share that we will be delivering a dedicated session at the BDIA Dental Showcase, exploring the evolving role of the Oral Health Practitioner (OHP) and their importance in modern dentistry.
The Role of the Oral Health Practitioner (OHP) in Modern Oral Healthcare: Delivering Holistic Preventive Care in Practice and the Community
🗓️ Friday 13th March 2026
📍 Oral Health Theatre
🎤 Speaker: Miranda Steeples, Educator at Tempdent
Session Aim
This session provides delegates with a clear understanding of the career progression route from Dental Nurse to Oral Health Practitioner, and how this qualification can be effectively integrated within a prevention‑focused dental practice. Attendees will gain insight into how OHPs can support both practice‑based care and outreach within the local community.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this session, delegates will be able to:
- Describe the skillset and scope of practice of an Oral Health Practitioner
- Create a utilisation protocol to integrate an OHP within the wider dental team
- Implement this protocol in both general practice and community‑based oral health initiatives
This session is ideal for dental professionals looking to expand their preventive services, strengthen their workforce skill mix, and support community oral health improvement.
