If and when things go wrong, we’ll help with mediation for associateship disputes between members to avoid costly adversarial litigation. We know how important relationships are in a small profession like yours.
Associate contract checking
We'll review and provide advice on your associate contract to make sure it's appropriate and legally sound. Paying for this advice from a high street law firm could set you back £1000, plus they won’t know dentistry.
Learning and development
Joining as a member gets you access to 200 hours of CPD per year to show your commitment to professionalism. Earn, track and manage your own CPD Hub.
If you prefer something more interactive, get discounts on training days, lecture-based seminars, practical hands-on workshops, multi-speaker conferences, and live evening webinars.
Connect with colleagues through a branch or section event happening near you.
Keep up to date
Join your peers and colleagues enjoying the BDJ twice a month and stay up to date with what's happening in dentistry around the UK with BDJ In Practice and regular newsletters.
Looking after the people that matter
If you, your spouse or a dependant need counselling or emotional support, call Health Assured whenever you need it. You can access the confidential helpline 24/7, 365 days a year. You’re not alone.
The support of your trade union
We represent dentistry to governments and the regulator. Activism isn't for everyone but lending your support just by being a part of the BDA means we have a louder voice: Together, we're stronger.
