Dentistry Degrees in Belgium

Study Dentistry Degrees

Dentistry is the branch of medicine that is focused on the study, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of diseases and conditions involving the mouth, and associated structures, and how these conditions can impact the human body. Dental care and health is extremely important, and it is imperative that dentists and dental assistants are prepared for their career in dentistry through education and training.

An undergraduate degree in dentistry will give a foundation knowledge of dental science, as well providing experience for students. You will study modules on anatomy, physiology, biology, patient care, and pharmacology.

Your degree will be delivered in a mixture of modes. These will include lectures and seminars, as well as technical and practical sessions. You may also be required to take part in a work placement, in order to develop your clinical skills. Clinical teaching will be a large part of your course, to ensure that you have practical knowledge as well as theory.
