Workshop
Session synopsis: 
A recent survey by the Erosive Tooth Wear Foundation revealed that over 90% of UK schools are teaching screening for tooth wear routinely, and 53% were very familiar or familiar with International Guidance for teaching Erosive Tooth Wear. However, it is unclear how well schools across Europe are familiar with the same guidance, or teach the topic.

This session will collect opinions around how tooth wear is taught across Europe, and provide information in relation to useful online resources and tools and techniques for teaching Erosive Tooth Wear.
