About Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry (MSc) at University of Warwick

The University of Warwick has pioneered dental postgraduate edcuation, based in approved primary care centres, and prides itself on providing the highest level of support for its students, as befits an institution regularly ranked within the top 10 UK universities.

Due to recent proposed changes in the structure of UK postgraduate dental education, which not only affect eligibility for Royal College of Surgeons qualifications, but also, with the new NHS dental contract, Department of Health dentists with extended skills (DES) status, the University is to re-align our MSc in Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry programme, to maximize the opportunities which the aforementioned changes in UK postgraduate dentistry will offer.

We believe that this will offer our successful dental postgraduates even greater opportunities to further their careers.
