- Mixed-mode. Non-European, international students can access a 'mixed mode' study option.

Teaching and Learning is achieved through lectures, step-by-step patient case presentations, ample hands-on training (in both skills laboratories and clinic), video demonstrations of clinical procedures, and textbook / current literature compilation (provided). There is an excellent instructor-student ratio for the hands-on exercises.
Our state-of-the-art facilities include two dedicated laboratories for the production of patient devices such as fixed and removable prosthetic devices. There are five clinical skills laboratories containing 90 clinical skills stations equipped with dental manikins allowing trainees to practically and safely refine skills, and work in conditions that mimic real-life practice. Two of our suites are also equipped with dental microscopes to aid identification of anatomical imperfections and the quick detection of enamel and dentine fractures.
