Professionalism and Professional Standards for Dentists and Dental Practitioners

Professional Standards for Dentists and Dental Practitioners is a CPD course designed for registrants of the General Dental Council who wish to strengthen professional conduct and regulatory compliance. The programme explores patient-centred care, integrity, accountability, professional boundaries, confidentiality, record-keeping, safeguarding, and the duty of candour in dental practice.
