Dentists | General Dental Council

Compliance: how well do you understand the issues?

We can advise on the interpretation of the GDC's professional standards, principles and scoping requirements.

There are situations where a dentist's actions or compliance may be called into question by patients. Mere reliance on your professional indemnity policy is akin to bolting the door after the horse has already bolted. You can protect yourself before a course of action is embarked on by taking legal advice. Although this may not be a complete defence, it may well mitigate a later problem.

It may also assist in a dispute where a dentist's conduct has been questioned by other dentists.
