    • GDC will check your application and documents normally within 4 months of receipt of the application pack.
    • GDC will contact you if there is a problem with your application (this could include returning your application if it is considered incomplete).
    • If all goes okay, GDC forwards your application to the next available assessment panel, if it is considered complete as per requirements.
    • Once the assessment panel finishes the assessment, GDC will inform you of their decision on your application (in writing, so you will get a letter by post).
    • The General Dental Council (GDC) has a maximum of six months from receipt of a complete application to inform an applicant of its decision, however, currently, these timelines are over the norm.


    It is an offense under section 39 of the Dentists Act 1984 (as amended) to use a DCP title without being registered with the GDC.

    The process takes a good few weeks so please do plan in advance. We will be able to guide you through the entire process and try to work with you in an attempt to get the application accepted the first time. Feel free to speak to us.
