The FutureDent course is aimed primarily at A-Level and GCSE students, aged 16-18. However we appreciate that many younger students doing their GCSE’s will also have aspirations to study Dentistry so we do accept students in first year GCSE or earlier.

The FutureDent course is a 2 day course, starting promptly each day at 9:00am including appropriate comfort breaks and lunch break, and will be finished by 4:30pm each day.

The course will be run entirely in English and students are expected to be fluent in English if they wish to attend. There will be no provision at all for any non-English speaking students.

There is no expectation to have any experience or background in Dentistry, only a passion and enthusiasm to learn and engage in the course.

FutureDent will provide basic snacks and drinks during short breaks however due to the close proximity of the course to many restaurants and cafe's and various dietary requirements, students will be expected to buy their own lunch, within just 1 minutes walk from the venue.

The hands-on exercises will vary giving students an opportunity to experience a variety of dental procedures.

Yes, the FutureDent course is run entirely by Dentists and so students will be constantly interacting and taught by Dentists throughout the course.

The FutureDent course is offering in person work experience at a dental experience to the first 5 registrants on the course.

The FutureDent course is currently only running during the Summer months but if we open up other courses throughout the rest of the year, we will update the website accordingly.

Whilst the FutureDent course is not officially recognised or endorsed by any University, it will be an invaluable experience for prospective dental students, that they will be able to reference on their personal statements during the University applications.
