Student advice
The College of General Dentistry is the professional home for dental professionals at all stages of their career – from student or trainee to experienced clinician.
Written by dental students and dental practitioners, this series of advice blogs is designed to support dental students and trainees during your studies and as you transition to real-life dentistry. We would love to hear from you if you’d like to share your experience and write a student advice blog – find out more and get in touch with us at [email protected]
