What to Check Before Booking a Consultation in Monk's Muir Park
GDC registration — verify the treating clinician is registered with the General Dental Council. The GDC register is searchable at gdc-uk.org. Any person providing orthodontic treatment must be GDC-registered.
Credentials and experience — ask whether the treating clinician is a specialist orthodontist (an additional three-year postgraduate qualification beyond dental school), a general dentist trained in aligner treatment, or a dental therapist. This affects the complexity of cases that can safely be managed.
What the consultation includes — a proper consultation should involve X-rays (if not recently taken), clinical examination of bite, gums and teeth, a discussion of suitability and treatment options, and a treatment plan with realistic expectations. A free consultation that skips clinical records is often primarily a sales appointment.
