Eligibility
Do you know a specialty, associate specialist or specialist (SAS) dentist, or are you a SAS dentist who regularly goes over and above to provide excellent patient care, who contributes to the learning and development of others and who improves patient safety? If so, this is your opportunity to recognise and celebrate the excellent contributions SAS dentists make. We invite you to nominate, or self-nominate an SAS dentist who you think is deserving of this award.
