The mystery finally answered 😬🙌🏽 I had no idea DFT had a study day involved, more excited now 😬 thank you so much for this, you explained everything so easily 👌🏼
Thanks so much The only other route would be private practice as to progress further into hospital or nhs dentistry you would have to complete Dft first
Thank you SO much for this video! Its was so simple and helpful :) I had a question about overseas dental graduates, what exam do they have to take to start there DFT ?
If they have a qualification that is recognised in the UK they have to do the same as UK students: SJT and interviews: www.copdend.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/Curriculum-2016-Printable-reverse-colourway.pdf
Superb video, thank you. I have a question: would you say that the NHS’ wages for dentists make for a good salary compared to other jobs not as qualified? Taking into account the cost of living in the UK of course… I’m a foreign trained dentist and I’m contemplating this route, though I hear many people complain about very low wages… are they really that bad or would you still be in a good percentile in terms of “earnings”? Thank you ☺️
You're welcome! There are different specialities e.g. maxfax, oral surgery, ortho, paediatrics etc - so depending on which placement you do, you train in that field for 1-3 years until you either go on to be an associate dentist or a specialist
thank you for your incredible sharing. i kindly wondered if we worked for the nhs - would we be able to choose where in england we're able to work in? or is it more competitive in parts of england - ie south of england? thanks
So basically if one want to go to dental school he or she has to go 4 years undergraduate 6 years dental school and 4 years of DFT and DCT ( 14 years) in total
Hi, not at all. In the UK we dont have to do an undergrad degree before completing a dentistry degree. It's 5 years of dental school, 1 year of DFT and up to 3 years of DCT. DFT and DCT are not compulsory.
words cannot describe how clear and useful that diagram was
yay im glad you found it helpful!

Oh okay the system' is slightly different than US
Can we have our own jobs afyer 5th year i mean not working in general
I don’t understand the dct parts, is it need before specialising ?
Informative video. Can i refer you to a new directory for dentists to add your video? We can also send you the link by email.
An important question here, I have a gap between my incissors and i want to be a dentist, is it possible to rejected when the interviewer sees it?
Of course not! Candidates are not judged on their appearance or oral health.
what a levels do you need for dentistry and what did u do
it can vary between universities, usually at least one science subject. I did chem bio history and maths
Do you get paid during dft
Hi, do you have to pay for DFT and DCT too?
Hi, no you don't - its a salaried job so you get paid to do it!
