Description

The GDC is the UK-wide statutory regulator of around 115,000 members of the dental team, including dentists and dental care professionals (DCPs). The primary role of the GDC is to protect the public. The work of the GDC is governed by the Dentists Act 1984 (as amended), which establishes our duty to maintain a register of dental professionals and establishes the criteria and routes to registration. The Act requires holders of recognised overseas diplomas to demonstrate that they have the necessary knowledge and skill to be registered by the GDC.
The ORE is in effect, a safety-related test of competence that provides assurance to the GDC that an individual is competent. The GDC is looking for a suitably qualified supplier to facilitate the delivery of the ORE Part 2 examination for candidates to demonstrate practical clinical skills. To deliver the ORE examinations, the supplier must be a dental authority, or a group of dental authorities as defined by the Dental Act 1984.
