Oral Surgery MClinDent

Advances in research mean that oral surgery is continually evolving, enhancing patients’ clinical experience. This programme combines theoretical and clinical elements of oral surgery to create an enjoyable balance of academic study and patient care, providing a strong foundation for a future career in this field.

Clinical skills training is held within our new university facilities and gives you the chance to develop and refine your surgical skills, using microscopes and imaging equipment. The clinical, patient-facing aspects of the programme take place in our new hospital environment, where you will take part in consultation clinics, local anaesthetic, conscious sedation, and general anaesthetic oral surgery operating sessions. You will also be able to observe inpatient oral and maxillofacial surgery operating procedures.

Lectures provide a theoretical knowledge base, complemented by interactive seminars, case-based discussions, and problem-based learning, and you will also complete a research project and written dissertation.

The course can help you prepare for the Membership of the Faculty of Dental Surgery (MFDS) and gives you a firm foundation for oral surgery specialist training.
