Special focus bulletins 

The Office of the Chief Dental Officer and the NHS England team regularly produce ‘special focus bulletins’ on clinical priorities and key aspects of patient care. These bulletins summarise the key information dental teams need to know and act as a refresher, combining best practice, expert opinion and useful resources. If you would like to suggest a topic for a future special focus bulletin please email the CDO’s team at England.CDOExecutive@nhs.net
