The Dental Defence Union (DDU) and FinalBDS are teaming up to help undergraduate students maximise performance with a weekend dental revision course. This is the only one of its kind in the UK. The course will cover the following topics: Clinical presenting Oral medicine Oral surgery Orthodontics Paediatrics Periodontics Case presentations on an unseen clinical case can be a daunting task; therefore the course also offers advice on this part of the exam. Rupert Hoppenbrouwers, Head of the DDU said: ‘After years of study, it’s understandable that students are nervous about facing the last hurdle before they become fully-fledged dentists. While not a short-cut to success, the FinalBDS course is designed to help students show their full potential and approach their final exams with confidence.’ ‘This offer for student members is the latest example of the DDU’s support for education, at dental school and beyond, including discounts on text books, guidance, support and indemnity during student electives, lectures, CPD courses for dental professionals and of course, our Educational Awards which recognise excellence in teaching.’ The course will be taking place from 6-7 February 2010 in central London. A £25 discount off the standard course fee is available to DDU student members who have applied for graduate membership. For more details, www.the-ddu.com is the place to go!
