The Irish Dental Council Registration Application Pre-Check Service | All You Need to Know

Get Registered with Irish Dental Jobs — Be Employment Ready in Just 12 Weeks

For dental professionals looking to work in Ireland, registering with the Irish Dental Council (IDC) is a critical step—but it’s also one of the most complex. At Irish Dental Jobs, we’ve seen how small errors in the application process can lead to major delays, costing candidates months of lost income and missed opportunities.

That’s why we’ve launched a dedicated Pre-Check & Submission Service—a smarter, faster way to get registered and start working in Ireland.


Why Registration Delays Happen

The IDC registration process is rigorous for good reason—it protects patients and upholds the integrity of the dental profession in Ireland. But for many applicants, especially those trained outside of Ireland, the process can be confusing and time-consuming.

Common issues include:

  • Misclassifying your application group (A or B)
  • Submitting incomplete or incorrectly formatted documents
  • Missing key deadlines or failing to track application progress

These mistakes can extend the process from the standard 12 weeks to as long as 9 months.


Our Solution: Expert-Led Support from Start to Finish

Led by Dr. Pádraig Creedon, former HSE Principal Dental Surgeon, our service is designed to eliminate uncertainty and streamline your path to registration. We provide:

✅ One-on-one guidance tailored to your background and qualifications
✅ Thorough pre-checks of every document to catch errors early
✅ Advice on certification, notarisation, and translations
✅ Tracked postal submission of your application to the IDC
✅ Ongoing support until your application is received and reviewed

Once your application is submitted, the IDC will correspond directly with you—but we’ll still check in every 4 weeks to monitor your progress and offer support.


Why It Matters: Time Is Money

Every month you’re not registered is a month you’re not earning. IDC delays can cost you up to €54,000 in lost income based on average dentist salaries in Ireland. Our service helps you avoid these setbacks and become employment-ready in just 12 weeks.


Real Results from Real Professionals
