This course is for dentists who want to specialise in prosthodontics and earn speciality membership of the Faculty of Dental Surgery of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh (RCSEd).  At the end of your final year, you can sit a single exit assessment held jointly between the University of Sheffield and RCSEd.  Candidates will be awarded a DClinDent from the University of Sheffield and a membership from the RCSEd in the relevant specialty, without the need to sit a separate examination. 

Although prosthodontics will be your speciality focus, you will learn alongside students in our Endodontics and Periodontics courses. With small class sizes (a ratio of 1:4) you will gain a broader knowledge base, preparing you well for the RCSEd membership exams and a clinical career in restorative dentistry. 

All our courses are mapped to the UK General Dental Council’s speciality curricula and in this way, we ensure that the whole syllabus is covered throughout the three years. 

Your first year is shared between all students in the three speciality courses. This provides a unique opportunity to develop a solid foundation in all aspects of restorative dentistry. All aspects of restorative dentistry in all three specialisms will be covered, including operative skills, clinical assessments and patient care. You will develop new practical skills in clinical training sessions, and attend consultant clinics and case discussions.

In the second and third years, your learning and professional development will focus almost exclusively on your mono-speciality working towards the end-of-programme con-joint examinations. You will gain the confidence to make sound judgements in complex and unpredictable patient care.

You will further develop a speciality skill set in the multidisciplinary environment of the programme; working, learning and sharing experiences with students and trainees from other areas, including orthodontics, dental public health and paediatrics. You will develop your skills and professional aptitudes in all domains so that you can communicate confidently, clearly and professionally with specialists, non-specialists and your patients.
