FAQ
Aesthetic Dentistry courses, common questions
What does an aesthetic dentistry course cover?
Typically smile analysis and design, whitening, composite bonding, veneer preparation and cementation, photography and case presentation. Longer programmes add occlusion and full-arch planning.
Do aesthetic dentistry courses count towards GDC CPD?
Under the GDC Enhanced CPD scheme dentists need 100 hours of verifiable CPD in each five-year cycle, with at least 10 hours in any two consecutive years. Check that the provider issues a certificate that states the hours, the learning outcomes and the GDC development outcomes it maps to.
Are these courses suitable for newly qualified dentists?
Foundation-level aesthetic courses are, and many providers state the experience expected. Advanced smile design and full-mouth programmes usually assume a few years of restorative experience.
