@BeverleyHarden I learned from the best 😉! So glad to see all the hard work we put in coming to fruition. Collaboration is key to unlocking the future of the dental workforce #advancingpractice #teamwork

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

Such a shame that @DentalUpdateUK didn’t take this opportunity to showcase the true diversity of the dental profession. We see this time and time again, when will it change??! Well done 👏 for speaking up @DrPaulLeavyBDS

@StarbucksUK Hi @StarbucksUK it was the muirhead tower branch!

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

@StarbucksUK please give Asia at your University of Birmingham branch a raise! Her customer service is amazing. I was having a horrible start to my Monday and she turned my mood right around AND made a lovely hot chocolate 😇👏 #BeKind #HappyMonday #smile

It was only a matter of time before The Queen recognised the hard work and inspiring nature of this Queen 👸🏽 @DrAshaThomson..I could not think of anyone more deserving. You strive everyday to uplift others, it’s about time someone did the same for you! 🥳😎#NewYearsHonoursList

1/7 daily life in photos. Nominated by @DrAshaThomson 👸🏽..in the lead up to Christmas a large amount of my brain capacity is used up trying to hide my nephews elf on the shelf in innovative places. Today...it’s longingly peering out the bathroom window 😂I nominate @pavanuppal4

In my last @The_BDJ column of the year, I look back at the past and forward to the future to see why being ‘Insta Famous’ isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

Bah! Humbug. Read ‘Scrooge’ online now: https://t.co/fpqfwLKZG8

I implore everyone to give blood if they are able to. Such a simple thing that could save a life. COVID may put you off but don’t let it...it’s safe and simple to donate. Do something amazing 🤩 #KeepDonating

[NHS Blood Donation 🩸🩹 @GiveBloodNHS]

Our donor centres are open, and coming to give blood is considered essential travel for the NHS.

If you're fit and well, please #KeepDonating if you can. You will save lives.

Thank you for your continued support during the pandemic. ❤️💙

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

@oliverrossperry I totally agree these are also huge priorities. However, why can we not achieve all of it??! Our imagination is our only limitation. If we don’t aim for these things, then they will certainly never happen.

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

“We have an obligation to develop global problem solvers”. Wise words from @HumanitiesinHPE. Reinforcing the importance of developing our clinicians to be the thinkers on a broader level and away from our tunnel vision of dentistry just being about teeth. #HLA20 #notjustteeth

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

😍. We have big shoes to fill @JasonWong12 @HEEMDentalDean @HumanitiesinHPE #oralphysicianship

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

Thank you to @DrAshaThomson for ensuring that dentistry firmly had its seat at the table at the @HLA_int conference. An amazing leader and one hell of a human being. Everyone watch this space, she has only just scratched the surface 👸🏽! Can’t wait for @HumanitiesinHPE talk later!

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

@mjismail @SBDNuk @rjmoore2012 @len_dent Yes Jaffer! Gonna try my hardest to tune in. You’re gonna be amazing 🤩

[Sharon Uppal @MMUppal1]

Come and join the @HLA_int conference this weekend to hear about leadership in difficult times. Well done to the amazing @DrAshaThomson who is a true leader for pushing for dental inclusion in this important conference! @HumanitiesinHPE @MedicMentor1 @HEEMDentalDean @JasonWong12
