Start your career in the dental field and become a highly skilled professional. 

Our program in dentistry equips students with broad scientific knowledge and clinical skills and the ability to combine them in diagnosing various oral health conditions and implementing proper treatment plans in clinical settings. Intense clinical practices provide the necessary skills to treat patients with confidence and success even in complex cases, such as those involving multiple dental issues or requiring advanced procedures like root canals or orthodontics.

About The Program

The Integrated Master of Science in Dentistry program combines a strong base of biomedical sciences and intensive clinical education with a focus on the application of the latest research findings. We focus on preparing students to become professionals who are able to perform various clinical procedures with high precision and integrity, according to the latest guidelines and frameworks, in total respect for legal and ethical concerns.

Students benefit from lectures and seminars in broad disciplines, from general health to dental-specific theoretical and clinical subjects to research and critical thinking skills, delivered by renowned professionals.

From the third year on, students get involved in patients’ treatments under the supervision of expert faculty members. They assume responsibilities in delivering proper care, follow up on assessments, and gain confidence.

By the end of their studies, they are able to present literature reviews or clinical research projects as part of their thesis or dissertation.
