Professional Practice is Hard

Making the move from academia to a clinical environment can be difficult for many young dentists, and that’s completely normal.

Covering 8 modules over five full days the Bridge Program equips graduates will all the skills they need to kickstart their professional careers in dentistry.

Our goal is to instil a passion for dentistry and a hunger for knowledge, because new technologies are emerging at an ever-increasing rate. It’s essential that dentists continue to learn and grow with these advancements – not only for our own professional development but for the sake of our patients.
