Step 1: Start with the Video Demonstrations
Begin by purchasing our step-by-step LDS Part 3 demo recordings:
These videos show you exactly how each exercise should be performed, following exam-standard techniques, correct sequence, ergonomics, indirect vision, and finishing.Watch each video carefully before attempting the exercise yourself.
STEP 2: SET UP YOUR MANIKIN EQUIPMENT
You will need access to proper manikin equipment to practise safely and accurately at home.
Please contact us directly for purchasing details — we will guide you through the correct setup and ensure you receive:
-
Exam-appropriate manikin equipment
-
Genuine LDS burs (the same burs we teach and train with)
Using the correct burs and setup from the start prevents bad habits and wasted practice time.
STEP 3: PRACTISE AT HOME USING THE VIDEO GUIDE
Once equipped:
-
Re-watch the videos
-
Practise each exercise step by step
-
Focus on sequence, control, margins, and finishing
-
This stage is about building muscle memory and consistency, not speed.
STEP 4: ATTEND HANDS-ON TRAINING
To translate home practice into exam-ready performance, we strongly recommend hands-on training.You may choose:
or
These sessions allow us to assess your work physically, under exam conditions, and correct issues that cannot be identified on photos alone.
STEP 5: ONGOING FEEDBACK & SUPPORT
All candidates are added to a WhatsApp feedback group, where you can:
-
Share photos of your preparations
-
Ask questions
-
Receive ongoing guidance and reassurance
⚠️ Important note:
Feedback based on photographs is helpful but not sufficient on its own.
Certain critical aspects (depth, taper, smoothness, angles, and safety) cannot be fully assessed from pictures and require physical inspection of your work during hands-on sessions.
MESSAGE FROM DR NANCY GIRGIS
The LDS Part 3 is not about perfection — it is about safe, controlled, repeatable work under exam conditions.
With the right sequence, correct equipment, structured practice, and honest feedback, this exam is very passable.
