🚨 Important update for Dental Care Professionals (DCPs) 🚨
If you’ve been struggling to renew your GDC registration because of issues with the new MyGDC system, the GDC has issued an important update.
✅ You will NOT be removed from the register because of MyGDC technical issues provided you contact the GDC before the deadline. (General Dental Council)
📅 What you need to do before 11:59pm on Friday 31 July 2026:
• Email [email protected]
• Include your name and GDC number
• Confirm that you have attempted to renew but have experienced problems using MyGDC. (General Dental Council)
If you do this by the deadline:
✔️ You will remain on the GDC register
✔️ You can continue to practise
✔️ The GDC will contact you to help complete your renewal once the issue has been resolved. (General Dental Council)
The GDC has acknowledged that the rollout of the new MyGDC system has caused difficulties for some registrants and has apologised for the disruption. It is also increasing customer support capacity while these issues are addressed. (General Dental Council)
👉 If you haven’t yet attempted your renewal, don’t leave it until the last minute. Try logging into MyGDC as soon as possible and, if you experience problems, make sure you notify the GDC before the deadline.
