In October 2023, the General Dental Council (GDC) announced the news that many dental nurses had been eager to hear – they were reducing the annual retention fee (ARF) for 2024.

As it's Oral Health Month, we want to stress the critical role of dental nurse oral health educators in both practice settings and as ambassadors spreading oral health messages among peers, friends, families, and communities.
Have you ever thought of setting up a dental nurse-led clinic for patients attending minor appointments such as those for records or oral health?
