I Am In The Process Of Applying To Dental School. Do You Have Any Tips For Finding Work Experience In The Dental Industry?
Q.
Good afternoon Dr Gambroudes. I would like your help with something. I am a recent sixth form leaver and I am currently in the process of applying to dental schools to get a dentistry qualification. I was wondering if you could give me some insight into finding any work experience within the dental field to better my chances. I would not really mind about the type of experience, but I feel that any experience within the field of dentistry would be of use to me. I am finding it hard to find this work experience and would just like some advice tips from an expert such as yourself. Thanks for your help.

Hello and thank you for getting in touch. One tip would be not to rely too heavily on e-mail. If you ring the practice or turn up in person they can get a sense of how you fit in. E-mail can be easily ignored if the practice is busy. You can also gauge when the practice is busy, when you turn up in person. Other than that persistence is key, keep trying and hopefully you’ll find a willing practice able to give you that work experience. I hope that helps. Best of luck, Dr Marcus Gambroudes.
