New dental academy set to benefit local residents
The new University of Portsmouth Dental Academy will be officially opened next week; the new, state of the art training facility will be opened by Lord Howe, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health on Wednesday.
The nine million pound facility will provide excellent training facilities for dental students from the University of Portsmouth and King’s College London, as well as offering advice and dental treatment to patients in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.
The purpose built dental academy has been designed to provide everything dental students need; there are study rooms, training suites, laboratories, treatment rooms and a wealth of resources; the facility is also kitted out with all the latest technology.
Students will also be able to learn practical skills while they study; under the supervision of trained professionals, they will be able to treat dental patients from the local area.
