The changes are reflected in both the free online version of the guidance and the printed book (available at www.fgdp.org.uk/shop).
The update to the third edition takes into account the Ionising Radiation Regulations 2017 (IRR17), which took effect on 1 January 2018, and the Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure) Regulations 2017 (IRMER17), which came into effect on 6 February 2018. IRR17 supersedes IRR99, and IRMER17 has replaced both the original IRMER 2000 and the amendments from 2006 and 2011. Both apply in England, Scotland and Wales; dentists in Northern Ireland should continue to comply with the existing local regulations.
The update has been carried out by Professor Keith Horner, Co-Editor of the third edition, who has previously published an analysis of the implications of the revised regulations for dentists and dental practice teams.
