Dental Medicine Programme (DMD)

10 semesters, title awarded: Doctor Medicinae Dentariae

Each year around 60 students start their dental medicine studies in the English Language Programme.

In the first two years the students are taught the basic sciences - medical and dental courses - which are the foundation of clinical dentistry. In the second year students already learn dental procedures on manikins. From the third year on more emphasis is placed on the study of dental diseases and their treatment. The last two years serve the intensive clinical study of each of the various disciplines of dentistry with emphasis on the assessment and management of patients. Furthermore, throughout their training students participate in elective programmes, clinical conferences and hospital based practices.
