Overview
The Diploma in Advanced Restorative Dentistry (Level 7) is an advanced postgraduate programme designed for dentists aiming to achieve mastery across all major aspects of restorative care. Accredited by EduQual and the Royal College of Surgeons of England, the course blends scientific principles with practical skills to build technical precision, deepen clinical understanding and elevate outcomes in everyday practice. Compared with individual certificates, the diploma accelerates development by integrating key restorative, operative and aesthetic components into a single structured pathway.
Structure and learning experience
Delivered through a blended format, the programme combines extensive face-to-face training with online sessions to maximise both learning and flexibility. Delegates complete structured modules that include seminars, practical workshops on phantom heads and other models, live demonstrations and guided online learning, creating an immersive experience that reinforces knowledge between training blocks. This balance of theory and hands-on practice allows delegates to continue working in practice while progressing through postgraduate education.
Clinical focus and outcomes
The diploma begins by establishing strong restorative foundations including occlusion, articulator use and advanced treatment planning. Delegates then develop precision in tooth preparation, adhesion and composite techniques, endodontic and periodontal considerations, advanced operative restorations and aesthetic integration. The curriculum is designed to help dentists diagnose more confidently, plan complex treatments effectively and deliver higher-quality outcomes at every stage of patient care.
Level 7 Certificate
To earn the Level 7 Diploma in Advanced Restorative Dentistry, delegates complete a structured series of assessments including clinical portfolios, reflective writing, treatment planning exercises and formal examinations.
On successful completion of the programme and all required assessments, delegates are awarded the Level 7 Diploma in Restorative Dentistry, along with the constituent Level 7 Certificates in Restorative Dentistry, Operative Dentistry and Aesthetic Dentistry - all accredited by EduQual and recognised by the Royal College of Surgeons of England. This internationally recognised diploma confirms advanced clinical competency and postgraduate capability.
