Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he plans to review the standards of training for dentistry students.

The General Dental Council (GDC) is the independent regulator for dentists and dental care professionals in the United Kingdom. The GDC sets the standards of training and education required, including clinical placements, to gain entry to its register, and approves and inspects education and training providers.
