Due to recent proposed changes in the structure of UK postgraduate dental education, which not only affect eligibility for Royal College of Surgeons qualifications, but also, with the new NHS dental contract, Department of Health dentists with extended skills (DES) status, the University is to re-align our MSc in Endodontics programme, to maximize the opportunities which the aforementioned changes in UK postgraduate dentistry will offer.

We believe that this will offer our successful dental postgraduates even greater opportunities to further their careers.

Who is the course for?This part-time programme is aimed at practising dentists who wish to successfully develop advanced knowledge and skills for the general practice of endodontic care, with minimum time away from practice.
