British Society for General Dental Surgery. This Society was established by holders of the Membership in General Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of England to encourage and promote excellence in general dental practice so that it may benefit the public, linked to the study of dentistry and allied sciences in ways to advance and improve the standards of general dental practice. This tie the Society chose to replace its original tie was designed by Agnieszka Williams, former designer for ‘Tie Rack’, who also designed the current tie of the European Section of the International College of Dentists.
