Dental Professionals Hearings Service determination — review hearing
Suspended indefinitely
The regulator’s term: indefinite suspension
What does “suspended indefinitely” mean?
An indefinite suspension is a pause on the right to practise with no fixed end date. The practitioner cannot work in the regulated profession until the regulator reviews the case and decides the suspension can be lifted. Indefinite suspensions are imposed in the most serious cases, often where a fixed period would not adequately protect the public.
