Dear Sam, A few years ago I organised a dental statistics group. Apart from corresponding informally between ourselves, we conducted a study of dental statistics teaching in the UK and ROI. [Smeeton N. (2002) Undergraduate courses in dental statistics in Britain and Ireland. Statistics Education Research Journal 1(2) 45-48.] With the encouragement of various members, I produced an introductory statistics text specifically aimed at dental students. [Smeeton N.C. (2005) Dental Statistics Made Easy. Radcliffe Publishing: Abingdon (168pp).] Due to other pressures such as the RAE, I suspect, the group then sadly 'wound down' but we were around 20 in number. There are certainly some enthusiastic dental statistics teachers around.
