This section of our site is designed to help you, as a member of the public, find out more about the training and education of dentists and members of the dental team.
There is also information about how our organisation helps dental professionals to provide the highest standards of care for patients.
As a patient, your voice is represented in the FGDP(UK) by our Lay Advisory Group (LAG).
You can read about the work of the LAG in this section, as well as how to raise any concerns you might have about postgraduate training and standards in dentistry.
There are also articles, press releases and documents in our publications section that you might find useful, as well as links to other websites with helpful information on dentistry. You can also find out more about other organisations in dentistry and there is a list of common dental abbreviations.
