Suspension(suspended from practice)· 1 year
The GDC tribunal decided that Mr Brown's suspension from the dentist register would be extended for a further 12 months, with a review before the order expires. The Committee was reviewing a suspension first imposed in March 2025 for failing to cooperate with a GDC investigation into a patient complaint. It found no evidence of insight or remediation and concluded Mr Brown's fitness to practise remained impaired.
