Concerning Tayo Olamide Owootomo, dental therapist.

Decision date: 21 July 2026 · Hearing started 21 July 2026

In plain English

The GDC's Registration Appeals Committee dismissed Tayo Olamide Owootomo's appeal against the Registrar's decision to refuse his registration as a dental therapist. The committee reached its decision on 21 July 2026, following a hearing held the same day. The refusal therefore stands and he is not on the GDC's Dental Care Professionals register. The GDC has not published a full written determination for this appeal, so the committee's detailed reasons are not on the public record.
