Abstract
In its primary role of protecting the public the General Dental Council has many tools at its disposal, one of which is pursing those who seek to practise dentistry illegally. Such illegal practice takes several different forms: dentists who have been erased or removed from the register but continue to practise, unregistered dental technicians who practise dentistry, and beauty salons that offer tooth whitening. Consequently a variety of approaches is required in order to apprehend the miscreant and persuade, prevent and even prosecute them in the process of stopping their illegal activities. The fifth and final part of our series on the GDC discusses the modus operandi of the legal department's work in this important area.
