A new president

“I want the BACD to become one of the most dynamic, inviting and open academies in the UK,” said Andrew. “Following the example of my predecessors, I will continue to reinforce the exceptional quality the profession has come to expect from the BACD.

“More than that, I want the BACD to become the champion of cosmetic dentistry – a strong, academic base for the profession that is based upon high quality, good education and inflexible ethics.

“As president, I will welcome input from our devoted members. Without their vital feedback, the BACD would not be the exceptional institution it is today – and nor would it be able to develop further. As such, I do not want my year of leadership to be one of dictation – I want this to be a year of leadership through teamwork.”

Andrew Chandrapal was inaugurated as president at the Academy’s Annual Conference in November. The three day event was met with great enthusiasm and acclaim, and provided aspiring professionals with an opportunity to learn more about the field of cosmetic dentistry.
