Once a dental nurse is registered, the next step is usually a post-registration certificate in a specialism. This app covers four of them — Dental Radiography, Oral Health Education, Dental Sedation Nursing and Orthodontic Dental Nursing — each with its own question pool and its own timed mock test, so revising for one certificate never means wading through another.
What the app does
- Four certificates in one app, each with its own question pool
- Single-best-answer MCQs and extended matching questions, as in the real assessments
- A separate timed mock test for each certificate, drawn only from that certificate
- Every answer explained and sourced
- Voice-over in a British English voice
- Works offline, and syncs progress across your devices
