Freedom of Information Requests, General Dental Council

Dear Sam Benjamin,
 
Thank you for your request for information, received 24 January 2018, and
set out below for ease of reference. We are not able to provide you with
the excel sheet you requested as it is not information the General Dental
Council (GDC) currently holds.
 
The GDC does not record information about specific dental practices, which
are regulated by the [1]Care Quality Commission. The GDC requires dental
professionals to provide a contact address for the purposes of contacting
them about registration or fitness to practise matters. However, a contact
address does not need to be a dental practice and can be a home or
residential address. The only way we would be able to match a practice
address with a registrant would be if that individual gave us the same
address for the purposes of their GDC registration contact address.
 
You may wish to refer to the public data website Data.Gov which, in 2015,
released a list of 10410 General Dental Practices in England, Wales and
Isle of Man. This may assist your search and can be seen on their website;
[2]https://data.gov.uk/dataset/general-dent....  Alternatively,
if you are interested in finding a dental professional local to you, you
can use the find a dentist function of the National Health Service Choices
website; [3]https://www.nhs.uk/Service-Search/Dentis....
 
Internal review and complaints procedure
 
I hope you have found the above explanation helpful. However, if you are
dissatisfied with our response or how your request has been handled you
can ask that an internal review be carried out.
 
Requests for a review should be addressed to:
 
Principal Legal Adviser
General Dental Council
37 Wimpole Street
London
W1G 8DQ
Email: [4][General Dental Council request email]
 
If, at the end of the review process, you are not satisfied with the
response that you receive, you may write to the Information Commissioner,
who is appointed to consider such complaints, at:
 
Information Commissioner’s Office
Wycliffe House
Water Lane
Wilmslow
Cheshire
