Overview
About The Course
Suturing is a core skill in general dental practice, yet many early-career dentists have limited structured, hands-on experience.
This course is designed for UK general dentists seeking focused, small-group training in intra-oral suturing techniques.
The 6-hour verifiable CPD course combines clear clinical teaching, supervised simulation, and individual feedback to support confident, consistent suturing in everyday practice.
Course Structure
The day is divided equally between clinical theory and practical simulation (50% / 50%), ensuring delegates gain both clear clinical understanding and hands-on experience.
Why This Course?
• Evidence-based course designed specifically for general dentists
• Over 50% practical hands-on training
• Limited to 10 delegates to allow individual feedback
• Practical techniques applicable immediately in practice
• Led by a practising UK GDP and clinical tutor
Who Is This Course Suitable For?
• Foundation dentists (DFTs)
• Dental Core Trainees (DCTs)
• Early-career GDPs
• Dentists wishing to refresh their suturing skills
