Unfit dentists are allowed to continue working for years

A dentist in Stockholm was able to continue his practice for almost three years before he was stopped – despite having spent several years in prison abroad for working under a false identity and harming patients. It has become more common for dentists’ licenses to be revoked, in 2022 it happened in 20 cases. In some of these cases, the dentists have been able to continue working for several years before the license was withdrawn.
