Membership for associates working for dental corporates
Membership offers you the support and services you need as an associate dentist working for a dental corporate. Providing impartial advice on associate contracts as well as the professional resources you need throughout your career.
Working as an associate within a dental corporate comes with its own unique challenges — from contract negotiations to balancing corporate policies with clinical freedom. The BDA is is the professional association and trade union for dentists in the UK and here to support you every step of the way.
You need expert advice, strong representation, and a community that understands your specific situation.
Support with your contract
One of our key strengths is the legal advice we give associates about agreements with practice owners and corporate providers.
We are familiar with associate agreements used by dental corporates and can give you clear information about the contracts to help you make informed decisions when you take a position. Just as importantly, we can help you understand how to get the best from your corporate associate agreement and resolve issues when they arise.
Our contract review service at no additional cost to members is worth £1000 on the high street and is backed by the years of experience helping associates in general dental practice.
Advice tailored to your needs
Also available with Essential membership, our expert online advice covers everything from associate contracts and employment law, to personal branding and tax.
If you find yourself in a dispute, we can provide mediation for associateship disputes.
If you prefer the comfort of one-to-one advice over the phone, choose Extra membership instead.
