Kirstie Moons has been appointed the final member to the General Dental Council's new 12-member body which will lead the The UK's dental regulator into 2014 and beyond.
The first appointed Chair of the GDC was announced in May and since then 10 further Council members were appointed as part of a new, streamlined leadership system and this more board-like council took effect in October.
Kirstie Moons started her career as a dental nurse and has since worked with the university dental hospital in Cardiff, where she held the roles of dental nurse training officer and then dental nurse manager.
