Following the recent judgment by Judge Ismail, all Dental Assistants have to be registered with the HPCSA. Judge Ismail dismissed the South African Dental Association’s application to have the regulations requiring Dental Assistants to register with the HPCSA, set aside.
The Council is therefore urging all Dental Assistants to ensure their registration with the Council is up to date and is reminding employers that registration with the HPCSA is a prerequisite to practise any of the professions under the ambit of the Council.
