Our aim at BrushUpUK is to assemble a group of dental professionals that believe and share our goals that everyone should have the knowledge and skills to access and maintain a good standard of oral health. The December 2015 NICE guidelines on oral health promotion highlight the need to develop a more preventative approach to dental care. To develop our key performance indicators we link our presentations and evaluations to ‘delivering better oral health’ and the NICE guidelines. BrushUpUK’s administration checks all volunteers for DBS, CPD and qualifications. We then provide tailored presentations for the preferred audience chosen by the volunteer. This gives the opportunity of an inexperienced volunteer to grow in confidence by starting with a simple group e.g. a local school, and then progressing up to educating healthcare professionals such as oncology care teams. Our dream of educating all types of carers has already taken us into 15 branches of vulnerable ‘at risk’ groups which are now being educated in preventive oral health. We are currently running a preventative project to help clients understand the dental consequences of alcohol and substance abuse. Utilising these forward-thinking, motivated dental care professionals to their full potential will benefit their local dental practice by increasing their enthusiasm within the workplace. BrushUpUK was created by a dental care professional and the current management team has a combined dental experience of almost 90 years, spanning across many different sectors within dentistry. Together, WE can make a difference and WE can generate our own movement in preventative Dentistry, by helping and supporting our Health Service and giving back to our local community.

In February 2016, our beautiful son Connor was diagnosed with a form of Muscular Dystrophy called Duchenne.Duchenne effects 1 in 3500 boys in the UK. It attacks the muscles and in most cases mobility is lost by the age of 10. It will eventually attack the lungs and heart which will lead to prematurely taking life from the late 20’s. Unfortunately, it has no cure. However, with your help good news is on the horizon. Research is underway for both enhanced therapy and a cure, but it’s vital for Connor and boys like Connor these projects receive funding to continue and even accelerate their development. Our mission is to end Duchenne in the next 5 years. Please support us to find a cure for this devastating disease.
