Our Remit
The west of Scotland branch of the British Dental Association is a voice for dental practitioners and members of the dental team in Glasgow and the south and west of Scotland. Our members are drawn from across the profession and work in general dental practice and hospital settings. Our council's role is to look after the interests of our members and help provide guidance and support for anyone in need of day-to-day advice. The BDA is a not-for-profit trade union which is run by dentists for dentists.
