Professor John Drummond, the BDA's President, said:
"The BDA has a rich heritage that everyone connected with the organisation is rightly proud of. As well as celebrating its many achievements, we must also remember it's an organisation with its sights set very firmly on the future, concerned not only with representing dentists, but also with improving dental health and promoting dental research and education. I am extremely proud to be President of the BDA as we celebrate this landmark anniversary."
The event saw the first screening of a short film commissioned by the BDA to mark the anniversary. The film profiles the work the BDA does to support members today, as well as highlighting some of the pivotal figures in the development of the dental profession. The film is available to view on the BDA's website at: http://dentistsaintpetersburgfl.blogspot.com/
