Each entrant should identify one patient from their practice who was suitable for advanced restorative treatment.

- Patient details (maintain anonymity – patient initials are fine)

- Social History

- Prognoses
- Dental Implant assessment (including identified modifying factors) optional
- Treatment Planning Options.

- Discussion of the case
The discussion of the case should include discussion of any specifically challenging issues or modifying factors that are present. All potential treatment options should be discussed and the relative advantages and disadvantages of the options should be detailed and the reasons for your preferred treatment option(s) explained.
The case discussion will need to explore the treatment options, aims of treatment that will be carried out, the sequence of any preferred treatment options that would be carried out and the maintenance requirements. All discussions should be referenced with evidence from the literature.
Entrants must submit power point presentation of the case to the Prizes co-ordinator, Rachel Tabor, email: rachel.tabor8@gmail.com.
