Summary
Pulp and periapical disease, including post-treatment disease and the complications of dentoalveolar trauma present a significant disease burden worldwide. Train with Newcastle University to gain specialist skills for endodontic clinical practice, and to engage in endodontic education, research and scholarship.
Our suite of MClinDent programmes has a common foundation of Restorative Dentistry. We have created three bespoke options to enable dentists to acquire specialist skills and knowledge in the fields of: prosthodontics endodontics periodontics
All three elements will be studied in stage 1 of the MClinDent and will remain a common theme in stages 2 and 3 as you continue in your speciality of Endodontics.
Find out more in our School of Dental Sciences postgraduate taught programmes brochure.
The MClinDent programmes are designed to align with the General Dental Council’s UK curricula for specialist training in Endodontics, Periodontics or Prosthodontics and can prepare students to sit the Membership examinations at the UK Royal Colleges.
You should then be able to use the clinical and academic portfolio of evidence that you have built to demonstrate equivalence to the GDC’s curriculum in either Periodontics, Endodontics or Prosthodontics in relation to specialist listing. The information about specialist listing in the UK is held by the GDC. Find out more.
It is important to note that successful completion of one of these programmes does not guarantee acceptance by Royal College to sit their examinations or registration as a specialist through the GDC in the UK.
