GDC didn’t recognise it yet so it’s a gamble, very expensive one about 70k

Hi, I'm a dentist from Egypt who graduated in 2001.I had to nurse my mum for the past 10 years due to her illness, so I wasn't practicing, and as a result, my dental skills were greatly diminished. Am I eligible for the degree? Can I start from scratch? I would really hope so.

Thanks a lot for this informative video. Just one question, though. This course is yet to get an approval from the GDC UK. Any information about this? Thanks again.

This was the same for the 4 year graduate entry course when it was first introduced. However, the graduates from the BDS course were able to graduate and qualify as the course got approved. The process of getting a course approved by the GDC takes time. Updates would be available from UCLAN if they have any.

18 months of this course seems to be the fastest route to working as a dentist in the UK. Ultimately your personal circumstances will decide whether the ORE is a better path for you or not.

Hi. Can you please tell me if a dental speciality training for 3 years in eastern Europe will be recognized in the UK? I don't know if I should be doing a dental specialist training in my country and after that coming to the UK or not doing one at all and come as a general dentist. How much does it matter in the UK to be a dental specialist from another country? Thank you!

Currently it seems as though Swiss dentists who are specialists can be recognised by the GDC. Otherwise you would need to go through the specialist training pathway if you are from another country. If you know you want to work in the UK as a specialist then it's much more straightforward to do your specialist training in the UK. There will always be a need for specialists but general dentists are in high demand and you can have a lot of scope without the title of a specialist. Check out the following link on applications to the specialist list. www.gdc-uk.org/registration/your-registration/specialist-lists/specialist-list-application-pack

I currently applied for this course and managed to get an interview at the end of this month. There’s an entry assessment and an OSCE, this is an issue as I have no clue on where to prepare for it. And what is expected in this entry assessment besides the topics mentioned on the website. Can you be of any help? Thank you in advance

@LancashireSmiles

Well done for getting an interview. Since it's a new course there is no past history to inform your preparation in a specific way. I would probably look at the BDS 1-3 topics and use that as a foundation for preparation.

would you prefer the ORE Route or the 18 Month course? Also If I take the 18 month course Am I registered as a General Dentist afterwards>?

@LancashireSmiles

The 18 month route seems more straightforward and shorter but it comes with the substantial costs which you pay upfront. After completing the 18 month course I'd expect you would go through the same process as UK trained dentists of being awarded a BDS. It seems as though the corporate Mydentist would take you on to help you obtain a performer number which enables you to treat patients under the NHS.
