The terms of the United Kingdom's (UK's) departure from the European Union (EU)
are currently being negotiated. It is therefore uncertain exactly what effect
they will have on planning the UK's oral healthcare workforce. Nevertheless, as
16% of dentists currently registered with the Genral Dental Council (GDC) have
migrated to the UK from EU countries, this factor must be taken into
consideration by workforce planners. However, it is far from being the only
factor. This opinion piece therefore describes the current numbers of non-UK EU
dentists and DCPs registered with the GDC and poses the question 'will they
remain in the UK in the future'? It then comments on the current legislation on
recognition of non-UK dental qualifications. It goes on to consider the Migration
Advisory Committee's recommendation for dental practitioners, the oral healthcare
needs of the population of the UK, who could address them and the implications
for the Advancing Dental Care project.
