Bachelor of Dental Technology/Bachelor of Dental Prosthetics

Dental prosthetists work independently with clinical patients to diagnose and treat them when they require removable partial or full dentures. This double degree is ideal for those interested in developing practical skills in design combined with diagnostic and technical skills. With this degree, you’ll graduate with two qualifications and be able to work as both a dental technician and a dental prosthetist. Because the two degrees share the same subjects in their first two years, you can be finished in just four years full-time study. And with dual accreditation, there’s more opportunity for specialisation and employability. The first three years will be spent developing highly specialised hand skills, finishing with a professional practice course where students work alongside dentistry students on "real-life real- time" patient cases. The final fourth year builds on the previous years with a focus on developing clinical knowledge and skills to diagnose, fabricate, make and fit dentures directly to patients.
