Restorative Dentistry MClinDent

The course is divided into three areas:

• supervised clinical and laboratory practice involving clinical skills training, diagnostic clinics, treatment planning, clinical procedures and technical work for selected cases, including some complex treatments. Clinically related activity including clinical teaching experience and observation of consultant treatment sessions comprises 60% of course time
• review of the clinical and scientific evidence base for Restorative Dentistry by means of seminars, lectures and practical classes
• research project and dissertation demonstrating your application of scientific method to a problem of direct or indirect relevance to Restorative Dentistry

Further information on the course syllabus can be found on the School of Dental Sciences website.

At least one year of post qualification experience by the start of the course, although we prefer two years of experience.
