GDPUK: About Us
This site became a new home in 2008 for GDPUK. All shades of opinion, information and advice within UK dentistry are represented within this vibrant and active group.
GDPUK.com is for dentists and dental professionals to discuss all aspects of their profession, their practice and their business, centred on the UK. Subjects dissected have been diverse, from tips on simple techniques to guidance on buying major equipment, to discussions on the various practice management software packages, and of ongoing developments in British dental politics.
Moderated in Manchester, England by Dr Tony Jacobs BDS, the Group was started in Summer 1997, and continues to grow rapidly. Tony continues to work in his family general dental practice in Manchester.
GDPUK.com also publishes UK dental news, and has had many exclusive stories, as well as being able to publish the latest news relevant to dentistry before other dental news providers. In addition, in terms of reader feedback and involvement, when some publications get almost no letters to the editor, GDPUK has about 320 different members writing to the group each month, and they write an average of 2300 messages each month.
In addition GDPUK blogs, both editorial and product updates are well read throughout the dental profession and industry.
A unique feature is the @DentistGoneBadd visual blog.
The group now has nearly 10,000 members, and attracts interest and sponsorship from major companies involved in the dental trade.
Readership is around 12,000 dentist hours per month [50,000 visits for an average of 13 minutes] and in 2016 this must exceed readership figures and hours spent of many paper based UK dental publications.
Advertisers can look forward to their banners being displayed thousands of times in a verified manner, using professional banner server software, to a targeted group of UK dental professionals.
The site remains free to join for all members of the dental profession. Register here.
Revenue is generated on the site by companies in the Dental trade, advertising on the site. More information about what GDPUK can offer our advertisers, can be found in our latest media pack.

New Government, New NHS?
NHS Dentistry has been the sick service of the NHS for a long time. Not given importance by successive governments and treated like an optional extra, a nice to have but not necessary service. Their neglect over the years and decades has finally come home to roost and we are now in a position where ...
NHS England in Astonishing U-turn
NHSE suddenly announced on 12th April that it had decided to cut the funding for secondary care practitioners accessing NHS Practitioner Health with immediate effect.

Dentists and Their Hobbies
Hobbies eh? Who has the time for them? With the crazy hours that many dentists work, the very word hobby would likely be something they come across when they read about the lives of other people, but I’m used to something that I heard back when I was active in Politics. “Give a task to...
To ORE or not to ORE, is that even the question?
This is one of those flashback/PTSD moments. It takes me back to a very stressful period in my life when I came close to ending it at various moments. The process of registering as a dentist in the UK for someone who was from outside the EU/EEA was onerous.
Mr Dentist vs. The GDC (Not Yet Aired on ITVX)
The aim of this blog is to compare the scandalous, criminal, modus operandii of the PO and the methods of the UK regulator of dentistry, the General Dental Council [GDC]. There are many, many similarities in the way they persecute their "underlings" by abusing their power, and their institutionally ...
The Crossing of Greenland Pt. II
For the past couple of days, we’d been skiing in that ping pong ball again, the continuous white-out making us long for the day when we would see a horizon. On day 19, we were unsurprised to wake up to zero visibility and the morning satellite phone call to Norway failed to fill us with optimism for...
