DescriptionDelivered by Professor Cynthia Pine, it is skill-based hands-on training. You will have supervised practice and be supported by skilled Dental Nurse Tutors. The training is suitable for all qualified dental nurses who are keen to develop their skills and will transform the way you support parents in improving their children's oral health. DR-BNI, is a fresh approach to prevention, rather than simply telling parents what to do, you'll learn how to engage them in meaningful conversations, helping them understand the root causes of dental disease, discuss their child’s current habits, and set small, achievable goals for lasting behaviour change.
