Pre-registration
The qualification most UK dental nurses take on the way to GDC registration, unit by unit.
The Level 3 Diploma is the route most trainee dental nurses in the UK take towards registration with the General Dental Council. This app covers all ten units of it, from Professional Practice and the GDC Standards through anatomy, assessment and chairside procedure to medical emergencies, with an explanation and a source on every answer.
The units match the shape of the qualification, so you can revise the one you are weakest on rather than shuffling the whole bank.
GDC standards, infection control, health and safety, consent and confidentiality.
Team roles and scope of practice, delegation, referral, appraisal and raising concerns.
Communicating with patients, explaining treatment plans and costs, and overcoming barriers.
Equality law, protected characteristics and inclusive care in the dental setting.
Anatomy and physiology, tooth morphology, caries, radiography, charting and periodontal assessment.
Local anaesthesia, restorative materials, cavity preparation, impressions, prosthodontics and extractions.
Fluoride, plaque and saliva, diet and free sugars, and oral health education.
Occupational hazards, inoculation injury, immunisation and personal well-being.
The GDC enhanced CPD scheme, hours, development outcomes, evidence and the PDP.
Basic life support, emergency drugs and equipment, and the collapsed patient.
Every explanation in the bank cites its source. These are the documents and texts it works from — guidance changes, so always check the current published version rather than relying on a revision app for a figure you will act on.
Separate purchase, separate qualification — but the same publisher and the same approach.
Dental Radiography, Oral Health Education, Dental Sedation Nursing and Orthodontic Dental Nursing, in one app.
This site publishes the app's free sample — 65 of 620 questions, across 5 of 10 units. Dental Nurse Exam Prep carries the full bank offline across all 10 units, so you can revise on the bus, between patients, or the night before.
