Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise jobs and careers

About Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise

Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise is committed to improving oral health across the South West. We do this by: * Running Dental Education Facilities in Plymouth, Truro and Exeter, where students from Plymouth University studying for a career in dental health (as a dentist, nurse, hygienist or therapist) treat NHS patients under the supervision of qualified and experience dental health professionals. * Improving awareness of oral health in the wider community, focusing on groups such as schoolchildren, the elderly, parents, those with specific conditions, people with special needs substance abusers, the homeless, prisoners – anyone who needs additional support to improve their oral health. * Ensuring access to dental care for all, but especially to those groups who may feel excluded from mainstream dentistry. We do this by taking dental professionals and students out into the community, and inviting the community into our dedicated Dental Education Facilities to get to know us better, and to become more comfortable about coming to us for treatment. As a social enterprise we are a not-for-profit organisation. Peninsula Dental Social Enterprise is the first project of its kind to receive the prestigious Social Enterprise Mark. The Mark is the only independent proof that an organisation puts people, planet and community ahead of profit.
