Welcome to the British Society of Prosthodontics website.

It is a huge honour to serve as your President during the Society's Diamond Jubilee year and I hope to continue the tremendous work of your past Presidents in advancing the BSSPD as the pre-eminent society that represents patients, technicians and clinicians engaged in fixed and removable prosthodontics, implantology and maxillofacial reconstruction.

Any society is only as good as its membership. I am confident that with our enthusiastic council and an ever growing membership that the Society will continue to develop to meet the needs of all its members be they technicians or dentists, generalists or specialist, educationalists or trainees. If you have an interest in prosthodontics you are very welcome.

I would encourage you to make it your goal to get more involved in this the 60th Anniversary of the formation of BSSPD;contribute to our discussion forum, post on Facebook, tweet on Twitter, take on our experts in the case based discussions, come along to a workshop, stand for council and especially be one of the delegates at our conference in Newcastle in March 2013.

Please visit the website regularly to see what is happening and encourage your colleagues to take a look at the BSSPD. This is going to be a very exciting year!!
