Programme Description

This course is designed to fill the need, identified by the Dental Council, for a continuing education programme for the Dental Profession.

The course aims to combine a `hands-on´ approach with theory. Students have a choice of nine modules, of which they must successfully complete six in order to obtain their Postgraduate Diploma. Students have to provide their own nursing care (where 1:1 assistance is required) and patients on some modules.

The course aims to give insight into the theory and scientific rationale of various aspects of dental practice, develop clinical ability in the relevant areas, and develop confidence in the use of new skills.
