Birmingham Local Dental Committee (LDC) is a statutory body representing in the main General Dental Practitioners, (GDPs) based in the area.

Birmingham Local Dental Committee (LDC) is an independent body paid for by GDPs themselves via a compulsory Statutory Levy based on a specified amount per month. In addition, GDPs are asked to contribute to a Voluntary Levy, which is used to finance such bodies as the British Dental Guild and the Dentists Health Support Trust.

The main function of the Committee is to represent and support General Dental Practitioners (GDPs); to ensure that GDPs are properly valued, and their skills properly utilised; that, whilst serving the public, they are able to uphold appropriate standards of practice

Birmingham Local Dental Committee (LDC) meetings are held every few months. We are happy to discuss any issues raised by dentists in the area and to take those issues to the PCTs.
