Overview
- AHPRA stated it believes Peter Terzi may still be presenting himself as a registered dentist or nurse despite his suspension in February 2025.
- Terzi is facing charges for recklessly holding himself out as a registered dentist and carrying out a restricted dental act, and he has pleaded not guilty.
- The agency’s public warning power was introduced under legislation two years ago and can only be used when there is a reasonable belief of serious risk to the public.
- Terzi is set to return to Perth Magistrates Court for a hearing to determine his trial date on the criminal charges.
- AHPRA has called on anyone who suspects they received treatment from Terzi since February 26 to contact its Criminal Offences Unit with relevant information.
