The dental degree programme is designed to provide students with comprehensive training in all aspects of dentistry. The program is typically 6 years in length and covers a range of subjects, including anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, dental materials, oral surgery, and clinical dentistry. The program curriculum is structured to provide students with both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience, with a focus on patient-centred care.

Some of the key components of dental degree programme include:

• Patient-centred learning that utilises evidence-based practices
• A range of learning methods and assessment techniques, including the integration of technology
• Hands-on experience working within clinical settings
• Exposure to diverse populations through community-based health services
• A diverse array of elective/selective courses each year
• Holistic education that covers various subjects such as humanities, social sciences, law, and basic finance for dentists
• Opportunities to engage in research across basic, community health, and clinical sciences.

Throughout the programme, students are encouraged to develop their critical thinking skills, communicate effectively with patients and healthcare teams, and practice with compassion and empathy. Graduates of the program are well-prepared to pursue careers in private practice, hospital-based dentistry, public health, or academic research.
