BSc (Hons) Clinical Dental Technology

... United Kingdom
... University of Central Lancashire

Course Overview

The course gives you the opportunity to train as a clinical dental technician who can work within dental technology and primary care dentistry as a clinical dental technician. Primary care dentistry is delivered by the whole dental team, of which clinical dental technicians are an increasingly important part. The structure of the course is exciting and innovative in that our BSc Clinical Dental Technology, BSc Dental Therapy and Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) courses share common modules. Both Clinical Dental Technician students and BDS students will learn clinical, technical and professional skills together during the course.
