MAV Domestic Abuse video for Dentists

This film looks at how dentists can help patients who may be victims of domestic abuse, as well as supporting materials. 

Domestic abuse can affect anyone regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, ethnic background or social class.

It is never the fault of the victim.

In 2009 alone 53,681 incidents of domestic abuse were reported to the police. Eleven people were murdered in that year as a result.

On average a victim will be abused 35 times before seeking help.
