The Dublin Dental School and Hospital is one of three dental education and training institutions in Ireland and provides programmes across the full range of specialties in dentistry.
The School and Hospital's educational programmes encompass Undergraduate, Postgraduate, Auxiliary and Continuing Education. These programmes lead to qualifications at certificate, diploma, degree and higher degree level.
The Postgraduate Diploma course is held over an eighteen-month period. The course provides a wide background of appropriate education and training in conscious sedation techniques to enable dentists to practice conscious sedation to the highest national and international standards both safely and independently.
A comprehensive education in the theoretical principles of conscious sedation, anxiety and pain control will be taught and clinical skills will be developed. The course leads to the award of Postgraduate Diploma in Conscious Sedation in Dentistry.
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test if you come from a non-English speaking country. Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test. More information
