which is the good uni. for dentistry

iam lookin 4 uni 4 dentistry....any guide or help ??

Hey, I'm doing dentistry too, and don't listen to all the people before giving you **** about spelling. Because, obviously, spelling doesn't matter in the world of teeth, because you're not writing about gums and toothpaste, you're a-yanking out molars, am I right!

Well, the best uni for doing dentistry is the Open Uni, which is what I did. Ignore all these other "traditional" unis - OU sends you loads of info, and - the best part - you get to practise...on yourself!! So unlike other unis, you actually get firsthand experience with the OU. Also, linked with them is a five year paid placement at one of the top dental clinics IN BRITAIN, which is located in London, with all paid accomodation and living costs.

OU also gets you amazing discounts off stuff - like 25% off food, alcohol, clothing, flights, travel, etc, and gets you FREE ENTRY into all UK and European clubs, plus 1 free drink on arrival.

Alternatively, which is something I considered doing, was just buying Dentistry for Dummies (or a book to that equivelent) because detinstry is something the UK is really in desperate need of. Therefore, loads of dentists are now just recruiting people from college - send them a letter, explaining you want to come and work there and they'll probably snap you up!

At an interview if you do go down the 'traditional' route, you will be faced with a large fake mouth. Under timed conditions, you will have to extract a tooth, clean them, etc, and you will be offered a place based on how good you are. Occasionally, you will even get a real live patient that you have to treat, and they mark you on that.

Hope this has helped!!






Oh, PS....

Learn to write properly, you retard.

You want to look at teeth your whole life?

yes we do. And frankly our interests are absolutely none of your concern so why not hop back into the medicine forum

Actually a lot of dentistry applicants seem to be more interested in money than anything else, so don't speak for others

But to make the money they'd still have to look at teeth wouldn't they?

How I love teeth

PS OP there are only 13 unis that do dentistry in the UK, decide what teaching you'd prefer (PBL, integrated or traditional) and how far you're willing to go to study and do some research on the ones left (don't rely on the university rankings, pointless )

Yes but do they really want to is what I'm asking

Oh right, it's just cos the other person didn't generalise anyone but you did I don't mind tbh but the people you know probably won't last if they're in it just for money..besides..what's wrong with teeth?!
