About the Program

Dentistry prepares students to diagnose, treat, and prevent conditions affecting the teeth, gums, and oral cavity. Coursework typically covers human anatomy and physiology, biochemistry, oral pathology, restorative dentistry, periodontics, oral surgery, and orthodontics, combined with extensive clinical training under faculty supervision. Students progress from foundational biomedical sciences toward hands-on patient care, learning procedures such as fillings, extractions, root canal treatment, and preventive care while developing the manual precision and clinical judgment the profession requires. Ethics, patient communication, and infection control are integrated throughout the clinical training to prepare graduates for independent practice. Graduates work as licensed dentists in private practice, hospital dental departments, public health clinics, and academic or research settings, with many pursuing specialization in fields such as orthodontics or oral surgery after graduation. This bachelor program is offered at Yeditepe University in İstanbul, Turkey, and is taught in English over a duration of 5 years, reflecting the extended clinical training required for dental practice.
