For instance, dentists are working with sports organisations, federations and teams in a wide variety of activities. However, the roles, responsibilities and spectrum of involvement of sports dentists is not well-understood. Just what does a sports dentist do all day? What is involved in such specialised activity and how does it interface with sports medicine?

The interviews that follow will shed light on the role of sports dentists, through five current practitioners and one sports medic.
