              Here we answer typical interview questions like “Why Dental Hygiene and Therapy?” – this is a popular topic at Universities, and they’ll often have an interviewer grill you for 5 minutes on that single question! Other subjects covered include doctor specialties, crucial duties, and the multidisciplinary team.

              Tutorials

              Lesson 1
              Why Dentistry?

              In this first tutorial, we’ll look at some of the reasons you’re interested in dental hygiene and therapy and how to respond. We’ll also go over some sample answers to help you come up with the best one for your Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview handbook.

              Lesson 2
              Dentistry Specialties

              Within dentistry, there are so many different specialties. We’ll see how much you know about them and make sure you’re prepared to answer any Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions during your Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview.

              Lesson 3
              Wider Reading

              You will most likely be asked about some non-dental reading you have done and why you chose the A-Levels you did. The Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions can be about what you’ve learned so far in sixth form and how you plan to continue this into dentistry school.

              Lesson 4
              Why not Medicine or Nursing

              Since medicine and dentistry are so similar, why did you choose dentistry? Is it because it’s so interactive? It’s critical that you respect other career options while simultaneously demonstrating your passion for dentistry.

              Lesson 5
              Dentistry Career Ambitions

              What do you hope to accomplish in your dental career? Do you wish to make your patients’ smiles brighter? Do you want to work in a more surgical setting or do you want to pursue research?

              Lesson 6
              Important Qualities for Dentists

              Dental schools want to know if you understand what it takes to be a successful dentist and if you possess the grit and determination required. Are you ready for the challenge?

              Lesson 7
              Challenges of Dentistry

              Being a dentist is difficult, and dental schools want to make sure you have enough knowledge of the field. We’ll look at some of the benefits and drawbacks of being a dentist, as well as how to demonstrate that you know your stuff.

              Lesson 8
              MMI Practice 1 (Why Dentistry?)

              Let’s put our theories into action with real-world MMI scenarios. We’ll walk you through them step by step and teach you the best method to deal with them. The advantage is that you get real advice from tutors who have been on both sides of the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview!

              Lesson 9
              MMI Practice 2 (Why Dentistry?)

              Let’s put our work to practice with real MMI scenarios. We will go through these together with you and show you step-by-step the best way of tackling them. The benefit here is the real insight you get from tutors who have been on the other side of the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview before!

              Lesson 10
              MMI Mini Mock 1 (Why Dentistry?)

              With mocks, you’ll dive into the deep end! You’ll try out the station, which we’ll record and then watch back together to see what you did well and what you need to improve on!

              Lesson 11
              MMI Mini Mock 2 (Why Dentistry?)

              You’ll dive into the deep end with mocks! You’ll have a go at the station which we will record and then watch back together analysing areas you did really well and areas you need to work on!

              Lesson 12
              Work Experience (Introduction)

              You will almost certainly be assigned to an MMI station that focuses on work experience, and you must be able to draw on your previous experiences and go beyond what you have put in your personal statement. This is why we pay special attention to what you’ve said in your personal statement and make sure we’ve covered all conceivable Dental Hygiene and Therapy Interview questions.

              Lesson 13
              Using STARR

              We’ll look at how to respond to Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions about work experience using the STARR framework. It’s critical to be able to arrange your Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions properly, as this structure aids us in formulating responses that will impress the interviewers. Before going over the 10+ questions in the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview handbook, we’ll look at excellent and bad answers in specific.

              Lesson 14
              Work Experience in Dental Practice

              We’ll look at the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions you might be asked if you’ve done work experience in a dental office. Interviewers ask a specific set of questions for this, so knowing what they are will be really useful. Don’t worry if you haven’t done any job experience in a dentist office, we’ll leave this to the Dental Hygiene and Therapy tutorial!

              Lesson 15
              Work Experience in Hospital

              It’s pretty uncommon for dental applicants to have this, so if you do, congratulations, but don’t worry if you don’t! This is quite helpful in providing insight into the secondary care approach to dentistry, as hospitals display the most up-to-date treatments and approaches that you may discuss.

              Lesson 16
              Work Experience in Orthodontic Clinic

              Orthodontic clinics are excellent places to observe patient-dentist relationships since they are frequently repeated appointments. What specific methods of communication did the dentist employ? These will be used in our lessons.

              Lesson 17
              MMI Practice 1 (Work Experience)

              Let’s put our theories into action with real-world MMI scenarios. We’ll walk you through them step by step and teach you the best method to deal with them. The advantage is that you get real advice from tutors who have been on both sides of the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview!

              Lesson 18
              MMI Practice 2 (Work Experience)

              Let’s put our theories into action with real-world MMI scenarios. We’ll walk you through them step by step and teach you the best method to deal with them. The advantage is that you get real advice from tutors who have been on both sides of the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview!

              10 Hours

              One of the primary reasons dental schools conduct Dental Hygiene and Therapy interviews is to determine what type of dentist you will become, which can be difficult to predict based on aptitude tests and A-Levels. We’ll show you how to demonstrate your compassion, sensitivity, and organisational abilities, which will help you become a great doctor.

              Tutorials

              Lesson 1
              Skills and Qualities

              You’ll be able to answer many personality Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions with the same responses if you follow Dentist Mind’s 5 stages! It will also allow you to come across as confident and coherent, as well as demonstrate your diverse set of skills.

              Lesson 2
              Inspiration and Emotion

              We discuss about the significance of sympathy and empathy as a dentist, as well as the typical “who is your role model” scenario. Interviewers frequently chose applicants that demonstrate a high level of emotional intelligence, which we study here, to differentiate between different candidates.

              Lesson 3
              Teamwork and Leadership

              As a dentist, you must be able to work in a team, and we will discuss examples in which you have done so. We’ll look at why this is significant in a dental context and connect it to what you’ve studied in earlier tutorials about dental motivation. Along with working in a group, you must demonstrate clear leadership and examine examples of how you could have improved your leadership style.

              Lesson 4
              Organisation & Time Management

              Dental school can be stressful, and universities want to make sure you’ll be able to handle it. They want to observe how you manage your time and organise yourself. They want to see that you have a life outside of dentistry, and we’ll test you on stress and some of the challenges that dental professionals, particularly newly trained dentists, experience.

              Lesson 5
              Personality Scenarios

              After gaining all the knowledge so far, we will delve further by going through some scenarios which put you to the test. This involves a mixture of MMI and direct questioning. You will gain feedback on your progress so far and sit down with your tutor and identify areas you need to improve further.

              Lesson 6
              Academia and Motivation

              You will most likely be asked about some non-dental reading you have done and why you chose the A-Levels you did. You can be questioned about what you’ve learned so far in sixth form and how you intend to continue this into dental school.

              Lesson 7
              Thinking Outside the Box

              This is our most popular lesson! We help you tackle some of the most unpredictable scenarios and Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview questions you might get. From being asked who you would invite to a dinner party to where you would travel in the world – these are actual stations that have come up at universities!

              Lesson 8
              MMI Practice 1

              Let’s put our work to practice with real MMI scenarios. We will go through these together with you and show you step-by-step the best way of tackling them. The benefit here is the real insight you get from tutors who have been on the other side of the Dental Hygiene and Therapy interview before!

              An understanding of the NHS and its structure is essential for a dental hygiene and therapy applicant. The present dental contract, which makes Band 1 treatment free, as well as the sugar tax, are particularly divisive at the time.

              Tutorials

              Lesson 1
              NHS Background

              We’ll go through some of the fundamentals upon which the NHS was established, as well as how dentistry fits in. We’ll talk about whether dental treatment meets the constitution’s requirements.

              The current NHS Dental Contract was formed in 2006, and it entails achieving activity targets known as UDAs (Units of Dental Activity). We’ll go over the benefits and drawbacks, as well as why many dentists oppose it.

              Lesson 3
              NHS Price Bands

              Dental treatment on the NHS is divided into pricing bands based on the level of service provided. Patients contribute to the cost of treatment by covering the cost of equipment and materials. You’re likely to be asked this because Labour’s manifesto pledged to make Band 1 free.

              Lesson 4
              NHS Traffic Light System

              All patients receive an initial oral health assessment from their dentist, after which they are assigned a Red, Amber, or Green (RAG) rating, which is used to create a personalized prevention strategy. How do you feel about the suggested system?

              NHS v Private Care

              What are some of the reasons patients prefer private dental treatment over NHS therapy? What are the main distinctions between private and public health care?

              Lesson 9
              Making Dental Care Free

              The NHS is not a money tree, and dental care is regrettably not prioritised over other services. How vital is dental care in comparison to other NHS-funded treatments? Is there a case to be made for making this free?

              Why Patients Undervalue their Teeth

              Teeth are frequently undervalued in terms of their importance in the human body. They’re buried beneath the lips and only visible when individuals smile or talk, so it’s crucial to understand how this affects dental care.

              Lesson 2
              Barriers to Oral Health

              This is a popular topic in the Dental Hygiene and Therapy Interview since there are so many various reasons why dental care is neglected in the UK, ranging from socioeconomic to psychological aspects.

              Future of Dentistry
