Dental practices: your team's GDC registration and complaints
The General Dental Council asks practice websites to show some things about the people who treat patients. Lupaan writes the pages for you, free.
- In the editor, type "dental team" in the chat. For each dental professional, add their qualification, the country it is from and their GDC number. Only fill in "specialist list" for someone on one of the GDC's specialist lists: nobody else may be called a specialist.
- Lupaan adds an Our team and registration page listing everyone with their GDC number, how to check the GDC register, and the GDC's address. It is linked at the foot of every page.
- Your complaints page explains your own procedure, then where patients can go next: the Dental Complaints Service for private treatment, and the NHS route for NHS treatment (in England, the local integrated care board, then the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman).
- The foot of every page says when the website was last updated, which Lupaan sets each time you publish.
Dental practices are not given a CQC rating, so there is no rating to show. You can add your CQC registration as a membership if you want to.
These pages are a starting point: you are responsible for what your website says, so check them against the GDC's guidance at gdc-uk.org.
