In 2016 the BDA undertook to investigate the demographics and distribution of its hospital members alongside their morale and motivation. This is the first time the BDA had undertaken such a survey and it is the first time any workforce research into the Hospital Dental Services (HDS) has been published by any party. Subsequent freedom of information requests have suggested that BDA HDS member data is representative of the overall HDS workforce. Of particular note is the distribution of some of the 'smaller' specialties with some seemingly only existing at dental school level alongside morale and motivation levels in relation to other dental roles.

Data from the 2010 Learners' Perceptions Survey (LPS) administered through the Office of Academic Affiliations, Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) were analyzed to identify factors associated with dental residents' satisfaction with the VA as a clinical training environment. Satisfaction scores were linked to clinic workloads, dental procedure complexity levels, staffing patterns, and facility infrastructure data to explore conditions that may improve residents' satisfaction. Findings supported the construct validity of the LPS survey data and underscored the importance of maintaining optimal ratios of attending dentists, dental assistants, and administrative staff to residents so that each trainee will have opportunities to perform an adequate level of dental workload. As programs strive to improve the quality of graduate dental education, findings from this study are vital for setting curriculum design guidelines and for providing infrastructure support for dental resident education.

The average number of visits for the construction of metal-based and acrylic dentures by junior hospital staff was 10 visits. Our hypothesis was that supervision would optimise the number of visits and reduce any need for remakes. The first audit cycle was retrospective and included all patients treated by SHOs in the Prosthodontics Department. The standard of care was compared to the British Society for the Study of Prosthetic Dentistry. The re-audit showed that the time taken to completion was reduced by 2 visits for both denture types and the average length of time was reduced from 31 weeks to 22 weeks. These improvements were directly related to improved supervision by senior staff.
