Preventive Practice of the Year 2009 announced

Young's Dental Practice in Snaith, East Yorkshire, has been announced as the Preventive Practice of the Year 2009.

Every year, Preventive Dentistry magazine and www.preventivedentistry.co.uk receive countless entries, and it takes a special sort of practice to shine above the rest.

This year was no exception.

The winning practice had to demonstrate a commitment to preventive dentistry and to offering services above and beyond the ‘norm'.

Young's is a family-run business and has been running for more than 27 years.

The practice employs a highly dedicated and local team, who has stayed with it for many years.

There are currently three dentists with more than 65 years of experience combined – and have been invited to lecture around the country on the evidence-based dentistry they provides. 

According to the judges, the practice demonstrated very clearly that their aim is to provide quality dentistry in a sympathetic, comfortable and caring manner with the emphasis on prevention.

We will be featuring a full feature on the practice, complete with photographs and interviews in the March issue of Preventive Dentistry,

• A big thank you to Oral-B. Without their support, this award simply could not happen.
