The Dental Practitioner

In this week's podcast, Dr Colette Dailey from ADA NSW Centre for Professional Development chats with Dr Mark Wotherspoon, a dentist specialising in providing a portable dental service that treats elderly patients in their own bed or favourite chair. They discuss the growing need for dental care for older Australians and how the portable dental service is a model that dentists may consider to grow or extend their practice. Mark also talks about his new invention, the 'Dr Mark’s Hygenie’ - a product which is purpose-built to clean, store and protect all removable oral appliances.
If you would like to hear more from Mark about dental care for the aged, he will be presenting at the upcoming Geriatric Dentistry conference, held by ADA NSW and The Centre for Education and Research on Ageing, on the 1st and 2nd of November in Sydney.
