You've been redirected to Dental Protection from The Young Dentist website. We recently merged The Young Dentist with its parent site www.dentalprotection.org. You'll find all the same information here, but also benefit from further help and advice provided by the wider Dental Protection site.
The site's search features will allow you to find information specific to your field and requirements, covering everything from Publications and Case Studies, to Conferences, e-Learning and membership information. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us on [CONTACT EMAIL].
With your foundation year coming to an end, it’s time to get the best protection possible for your career ahead.

Here’s what you can expect to pay for your Year Two membership*:
*The above rates represent the average Year 2 member. Subscription rates are tailored to your individual circumstances and may vary depending on risk profile.
In June, you’ll receive your renewal documentation which will include your Year 2 subscription rate. See above for what you can expect to pay.
You don’t need to do anything right now. Your membership will automatically renew onto a full-time associate dentist rate. If you’re doing Dental Core Training (DCT) or a second FD year instead, simply give us a call when your renewal documentation lands in June, on 0800 561 9000 and we’ll adjust your renewal.
Your membership will renew in June, but you don’t have to pay anything until September.
That’s when we’ll send you your £10 Amazon voucher via email, to thank you for choosing Dental Protection.

At Dental Protection, we believe the support and advice we provide makes us the best choice. Trust us to help protect your career and reputation on the next step of your professional journey, and for years to come.
As a member-owned, not-for-profit organisation, we exist purely to support you. Here are just some of the benefits you receive:
Our expert dentolegal team are there to help with queries and dentolegal emergencies whenever you need them. The advice line is even open 24/7, 365 days a year in an emergency. Whatever your question, problem or dilemma, we are only ever a phone call away.
We protect you in the good times and the bad. As you focus on treating your patients, we’re committed to supporting you and your mental health in a host of ways, including free counselling, a wellbeing app, podcasts, webinars and more.
When facing a complaint, we can help you respond and this can stop a situation from escalating. In 2018 alone, we helped members in over 2,700 cases where a complaint had been made.
In the past five years, 1 in 3 warnings issued by the GDC related to personal conduct. We're one of the few defence organisations that can offer protection in these cases, going above and beyond to safeguard your reputation.
We’re proud to be discretionary, with no financial caps or limits on the indemnity we can provide. It's why we use people, not contracts, to make decisions.
As part of the MPS group, Dental Protection has the largest reserves of any dental defence organisation in the UK. Our members have enjoyed the benefits of this stability for more than 125 years, and we are confident that we’ll be here for another 125.
You'll notice a few things have changed on our website. After asking our members what they want in an online platform, we've made it easier to access our membership benefits and created a more personalised user experience.
