Dental Practice Review

Home 9 Licensees 9 Dental Practice Review

The NSRDDA’s role is to protect the public with respect to dental care.  There are many ways in which this is done but one way is through the Dental Practice Review program.

The intent of the DPR is to provide dentists with the opportunity through consultation and feedback, to assess areas of their practices for upgrading if required.  The Dental Practice Review audit requires mandatory participation much like the Continuing Dental Education Audit.
