New Year's Message from the Registrar
Dear Registered Denturists,
Happy New Years!
This past year was a year of collaboration and friendship where we built on the warm relations with the Ministry of Health, with the DAO where we celebrated their milestone 50th anniversary with great company, and where we met the passionate leaders of the DGO and hosted our first ever Peer Circles event.

Transparency Initiatives
Making More Information Available to the Public
The College of Denturists of Ontario, and all health care regulators, strive to be accountable to the public by being as open as possible.
That means being transparent about what we do and why we do it, and providing as much information as we can about the Denturists we regulate.
In November 2014, the College of Denturists of Ontario responded to a letter from the Ontario Minister of Health and a letter from the Assistant Deputy Minister, asking all regulators to make more information publicly available. In its response, the CDO outlined its action plan to enhance transparency.
In December 2014, Council also adopted the Advisory Group for Regulatory Excellence (AGRE) Transparency Principles, to help the College guide decisions.
In September 2016, the Council of the College of Denturists of Ontario approved changes to the College By-laws. These By-law changes make more information regarding Ontario’s Denturists available on the Public Register.
This additional information includes:
- Full Notices of Hearing
- Criminal findings of guilt
- Bail conditions
- Cautions*
- Remedial Activities*
- Registrations in other jurisdictions
- Discipline findings in other jurisdictions
- Criminal charges related to a Denturist’s practice
