Dental Schools in Australia provide professional qualifications over a range of specialisations. Australian dental schools must maintain very high standards following established dentistry and dental science practices.

The program consists of one integrated stream, with coordination of topics within and between years. First year topics include health and disease, preventative dentistry, behavioural consequences of oral diseases, clinical examination and diagnostic procedures.

Queensland Dentistry

The Bachelor of Dental Science (BDSc) is a five-year undergraduate program that qualifies a graduate to register as a dentist in all Australian States and New Zealand. The BDSc is awarded at Pass and Honours levels.

UWA Dentistry

The Master of Dental Public and Primary Health (MDPPH) is designed to be an appropriate broad-based course of study for a person who wishes to pursue a career in dental public and primary health.

Griffith Dentistry
