ADA Postgraduate Prize

The Association offers a prize for the best essay on any topic related to general anaesthesia, sedation or any aspect of pain and anxiety control related to dental or oral surgical treatment. The essay may be of any reasonable length and if it relates to any original laboratory or clinical investigation then this should not have been previously published in a professional journal. However, if the work has been submitted to a journal then it may be acceptable at the discretion of the Council of the Association.

In the event of more than one essay being submitted then two or more members of the Council will act as adjudicators.

The winner of the annual prize will receive £250 and will also be invited to present a paper based on their winning essay at the Annual Summer Meeting of the Association. Expenses for attending the meeting will be borne by the Association.

Details of this year's award will be posted on this page as soon as they are available.
