The College of General Dentistry (CGDent) has announced the appointment of two new Ambassadors: Dr Wendy Thompson and Dr Yewande Oduwole. Those Ambassadors of the College who are dental healthcare professionals are drawn from across the spectrum of dentistry. They support the mission and vision of the College and encourage inclusive professional engagement in the development of the College. Ambassadors help the College promote dentistry as an important element of general healthcare and wellbeing. They support the College's mission to promote life-long, preventatively orientated, minimum intervention, personalised, holistic dental care. More Ambassadors will be appointed in the coming months as the College works towards its historic, formal launch, rescheduled for early 2021, COVID restrictions permitting. Chair of the College Board of Trustees, Professor Nairn Wilson, said: 'I am delighted that both Wendy and Yewande have accepted the invitation to become Ambassadors for the College. With their help and support, it is hoped to engage many more early career members of the dental team in the further development of the College, which, as key elements of its mission, aims to provide all dental healthcare professionals with new leadership and much-needed career pathways. The Board of Trustees looks forward to working with Wendy and Yewande in realising the College goal of being valued by a large diverse, inclusive membership'.
