The Australian Dental Council (ADC) is the leading authority for dental education and assessment in Australia. They are responsible for accrediting dental practitioners and ensuring they meet the necessary standards to provide quality care to patients. From 1 July 2023, all accreditation activities will be assessed against the revised Professional competencies of the newly qualified dental practitioner, reflecting the latest industry standards. The ADC also plays a crucial role in improving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health outcomes through dental education initiatives. Recently, the ADC released its Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan, outlining their commitment to reconciliation and cultural inclusivity. The website provides valuable resources for general dentists, dental hygienists, dental therapists, oral health therapists, and dental prosthetists, including information on practitioner assessments, program accreditation, and skill assessment. Visitors can stay updated on the latest news, upcoming events, and accreditation standards through the website. Overall, the Australian Dental Council is dedicated to promoting excellence in dental education and practice, ultimately benefiting the oral health of all Australians.
