Dental Nursing

Course Information

A T Level course is the perfect choice for those who enjoy variety and hands-on learning and want to get valuable work experience in a growing industry.

80% of your time will be spent in the classroom, and 20% of your time will be spent gaining practical skills in a real workplace!

A career in Health is much more than just a job – it’s a hugely rewarding vocation that very special kinds of people can thrive in.

By choosing a career in Dental Nursing, you'll be supporting the dentist (or other member of a wider dental team) in all aspects of patients' treatment and dental care, for a wide variety of procedures.

No day is ever the same! Some patients may simply be there for a check-up or for oral hygiene reasons, while others may require complicated treatment or even a surgical procedure. You will be there to also build trust with your patients and put them at ease during what can be a very traumatic experience for some.

Your first year will provide you with a solid foundation for your future career in Health. It will cover health and science concepts, theories and principles, the management of data, health and safety, clinical best practices, and the key regulations you need in any healthcare role.
