Haha oh well! Have a look at those links I posted and see where the universities come, especially in relation to student satisfaction. To be honest with dentistry it doesn't make a huge difference which uni you go to.

It really doesn't matter what university you go to for dentistry, so you're better off looking for where you'd stand the best chance of getting in and would enjoy yourself at.

Having said that, I've heard that graduating from KCL provides an advantage if you wish to practice in London (as many dental employers in London tend have supposedly graduated from there themselves), though I'm not sure how true that is.

In terms of league tables: Glasgow & KCL. But in terms of reality, anywhere you get a place is good enough.

If dentistry is anything like medicine, then go where you want to go....not because of some silly league table.

Manchester, Glasgow and King's College London is the best dentistry university for study.

They are all the same mate. Dentistry is dentistry no matter where you go. Just need to get one offer and that's all
