The Seapoint Clinic in Dublin is calling on all dental students from Dublin, Cork and Belfast dental schools to enter its competition to win €1,000.

To celebrate its 10-year anniversary, the Seapoint Clinic’s ‘Bright Spark’ competition is encouraging innovation among Irish dental students and asking them to ‘think outside the box’.

To enter, all you need to do is write about what you think the future of dentistry is going to look like during your time in practice.

Announcing the competition, the practice says: ‘We hope to encourage enthusiastic young dental students to tell us about their ideas for the future of dentistry. The topic can be wide-ranging or specific to a particular dental discipline.

‘The winner will be chosen with the following in mind: ingenuity, originality and creativity. Good luck!’

The suggested length is 400-500 words, and entries can be submitted to info@seapointclinic.ie. All entries must be received by 30 November 2016 and winners will be announced in December.
