1 Dentistry A Career in Dental Nursing Many opportunities, many pathways.

3 The role and responsibility of the dental nurse Dental nurses are part of a group of dental care professionals (DCP) and play a crucial role within the dental team. They are required to work as part of a dental team to assist in the delivery of dental care services to patients. Specifically, they provide support and assistance to the dentist or therapist and assist in clinical and non-clinical aspects of patient care in line with practice procedures. The role of a dental nurse A dental nurse assists the clinician in all aspects of patient care, including getting the appropriate instruments ready, mixing materials and medicaments and ensuring patient comfort. They will also take notes for the maintenance of the patient s records, and are responsible for maintaining a sterile and safe environment for both patients and other staff. In general practice, sometimes the dental nurse may help with reception work - making appointments, taking payments, dealing with paperwork and meeting and reassuring patients. An experienced nurse will use his/her knowledge of dentistry to anticipate what is needed during treatment sessions, a skill that is highly valued by the clinician. Dental nurses can be employed in general practice, hospitals or the public dental service and can also train as a dental nurse in the armed forces.
4 The entry requirements There are usually no academic qualifications needed to work as a trainee/student dental nurse, but in order to progress, you will need to study for further qualifications (see below). Three Standard Grades at Level three or above including English and one science would be recommended but you can contact your local educational provider for specific details. A team player with strong relationship building skills both internally and externally is essential along with good written and oral communication skills and excellent organisational skills. Employers will also expect a friendly, responsible attitude and positive approach to people, well presented and a willingness to study. Training Training will begin on the first day of work in the practice. In Scotland all trainee dental nurses complete a seven week induction programme which enables them to gain the essential knowledge and skills to work safely in practice. Successful completion of this induction programme will allow progression to the nearest pre-registration training course which is recognised by the General Dental Council (GDC), such as the National Certificate awarded by the National Examining Board for Dental Nurses (NEBDN) or the SVQ level 3 in Oral Healthcare. These registerable qualifications are awarded to dental nurses who have successfully passed the examination criteria and have completed two years of full-time surgery experience.
5 Positive and recent changes to the profession Compulsory Registration with the General Dental Council (GDC) All Dental nurses are now required to register with the GDC. Dental Nurses in training are temporarily exempt from this requirement but must be able to demonstrate that they are working towards one of the registerable qualifications on a recognised training programme. General Dental Council Ethical Standards The General Dental Council aims to protect patients within the United Kingdom by regulating dental staff, assuring the quality of dental education and setting standards for conduct of behavior that all dental professionals must adhere to. For more information on the GDC, access their website at
6 The GDC require that all registered DCPs complete at least 150 hours of Continued Professional Developmment (CPD ) every five years to maintain registration. 50 of these hours will need to be verifiable CPD in specific subjects. 50 hours of Verifiable CPD Medical Emergencies 10 hours per cycle Complaints Handling Radiography and Protection 5 hours per cycle Legal and Ethical Issues Decontamination 5 hours per cycle Compulsory CPD provides evidence that DCPs : knowledge is up to date and relevant to their practice, professional performance is up to the standards needed to maintain registration, behaviour meets the standards set out in the GDC s guidance Standards for Dental Professionals.
