Recognition of Dental Degrees in the UK:


The General Dental Council (GDC) is responsible for providing GDC registration for dentists which is required before they may practice dentistry in the UK.

Graduates from M&D partnered dental schools based in Europe usually experience very few, or no, restrictions to practising dentistry within Europe, including the UK.

However, as recognition policies can change, we advise that recognition of qualifications is confirmed by contacting the GDC directly using the following webpage:

http://www.gdc-uk.org/Contact+us/

Information on potential registration can also be found on:

http://www.gdc-uk.org/Potential+registrant/Apply+for+registration/

For information on the recognition of medical or dental degrees in countries outside the UK, please contact the dental council or equivalent in the relevant country in which you intend to gain recognition and practise.

Many UK medical schools and dental schools receive many applications to study medicine or study dentistry and places are very limited. Therefore, the preparation of a UCAS application form for medical or dental school is very important. Online Medical Admission forums are an excellent way to exchange views and ideas on what medical schools are looking for and which medical and which dental schools actually ask the toughest interview questions. The premed course is an excellent way to secure a place at a UK medical schools in the UK or medical schools based abroad. Medical and dental school applicants are strongly advised to get as much medical work experience and possible. Medical work experience seminars and dental work experience seminars consist of a series of medical seminars and dental seminars at a NHS hospital based in Britain. Many students also fine that UKCAT revision and UCAS Personal statement checking is very helpful.
Fierce competition for UK medical school places has encouraged students to embark on medical degrees and dental degrees outside of the UK, such as: Medical schools in Poland, Medical schools in Slovakia, Dental schools in Slovakia, Medical schools in Prague, Dental schools in Prague and Medical schools in the Caribbean.
