About

We help internationally qualified dentists prepare for UK registration. Our tutors have taught, examined and practised in UK dentistry, and many took the same route themselves.

Testimonials
Built by a dentist who took the same route
Dr Nancy Girgis qualified in Egypt, moved to the UK and passed the LDS at the Royal College of Surgeons of England. She knew how hard the path to UK registration can be. In 2013 she founded Best Dental Training to give overseas-qualified dentists the support she wished she had.
​
Today our team of experienced dentists, examiners and communication coaches teaches online and in person. We prepare you for the exam, and also for safe, confident practice in the UK.

Our approach
Training that goes beyond model answers
UK exams test how you think, not only what you remember. That is how we teach.
Clinical reasoning
Learn to explain why you choose a treatment, not just what to do.
Safe, patient-centred practice
We focus on patient safety and professionalism, which UK dentistry expects from day one.
Detailed, individual feedback
Every candidate has a different background. Our tutors give feedback that fits yours.
Taught by people who know the exam
Our team includes former examiners, RCS trainers and tutors who passed the LDS themselves.

What Dr Girgis brings to our LDS training
She has seen the exam as a candidate, a teacher and an examiner. This helps her show you what examiners expect and what a safe UK dentist is expected to do. She is known for individual support and detailed feedback.
