MSc Dental Therapy

Course overview

You develop into an independent practitioner working in the scope of practice of the dental therapist. You will be able to work autonomously and take professional responsibility for your own standards of practice.

Successful completion of this course will provide eligibility to apply to add dental therapy onto your General Dental Council Registration.

You undertake a journey of personal and professional development in a supportive, student-centred environment, learning through negotiation, shared responsibility and mutual respect, which mirrors the type of dental therapist/patient relationship we wish to encourage.

You gain deep theoretical knowledge and combine clinical skills to prepare you for the role of a dental therapist, and the wider multidisciplinary team in the promotion of health and prevention of disease.

On successful completion of the objective structured clinical examination gateway assessments, you will start treating adults, children and adolescents restoratively within your work-based learning placements.
