Consultant in Orthodontics - LW

Applicants are invited for a part-time substantive Consultant Orthodontist. The post holder will work with 2 Consultants, Specialty trainees, DCTs and an excellent support team. You will provide complex and multidisciplinary orthodontic treatment and orthognathic care from the hospital based orthodontic services to the residents of Fife. The department manages a wide range of malocclusions. There is an increasing bias towards those requiring multidisciplinary care as there are now several specialist practices in Fife. Weekly joint orthognathic clinics are held with Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery colleagues. Joint clinics with restorative dentistry are held monthly and patients with clefts are seen between Fife and the cleft team in Edinburgh and Glasgow. An increasingly important role is the management of patients with hypodontia who require multidisciplinary treatment with paediatric dental and restorative colleagues. You will also participate in the teaching and training of StRs.

You should have full registration with the United Kingdom General Dental Council and be on the GDC Specialist List for Orthodontics and hold the ISFE in orthodontics or be within 6 months of completing training at the date of interview for the post.
