FDI World Dental Federation (FDI) describes itself as the global voice of the dental profession, representing more than one million dentists worldwide. They aim to optimise oral health globally through effective knowledge exchange approaches, global advocacy for political action, and funding.

Since 2022, Page Medical has supported FDI’s dental professionals and Education and Public Health Managers in producing courses to educate and engage oral health professionals and students in topics such as cleft care, oral disease, and sustainability in dentistry. As of 2024, we have released 5 courses with FDI, all open-access and available via the links below.

Each course transforms existing guidelines and/or educator expertise into short, engaging, and professionally designed courses. They include a diverse array of content types ranging from impactful patient videos to quizzes and interactive infographics.

All of our courses with FDI consider one of Page’s core values, accessibility, with screen reader compatibility in all courses and multiple languages available on many of the existing courses for dentists around the globe. For example, our first Sustainability in Dentistry course was translated into 4 different languages shortly after course release:

 

Alongside the FDI Sustainability MOOC this year, we ran the FDI Sustainability In Dentistry Summit, a three-day virtual summit with speakers from around the world. Over the three days of the summit, we had three sessions with presentations from nine speakers from four countries. The conference had over 640 registered attendees from over 90 countries. The summit aimed to inform and educate dentists on the latest advancements in sustainability in dentistry and how to adopt these practices into their daily work.
