It is a requirement that UK BDS Graduate applicants meet the following criteria in order to be considered:

  • Must be a UK BDS Graduate
  • Degree must have been obtained within seven years of proposed date of entry (as this accelerated course requires recent undergraduate Dental knowledge, the Medical School would not accept BDS graduates who were awarded their BDS degree more than 7 years from the date of entry regardless of whether they had achieved further qualifications)
  • Must be eligible to register with the GDC
  • Wishes to pursue a career in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery only.
