Master in Endodontics MSc

At University of Birmingham, England, applications are due 28 August 2026.

Designed for practising dentists who already hold a 2:1 honours degree in dentistry, this part-time MSc builds on your clinical experience. It assumes you are registered with the national dental council and employed in practice, university or the NHS, and it aims to deepen your competence in vital pulp therapy, regenerative procedures and complex root canal management.

Graduates learn to treat challenging endodontic cases, expand services within general practice or specialist clinics, and meet the demands of NHS and private providers. The programme also develops research skills that support progression to PhD study or academic roles. It explores endodontic diagnosis, microbiology, material science and the peri-endo-restorative interface, placing these topics within a blended learning framework that combines online study, tutorials, journal clubs and residential practical weeks.

• Three-year part-time structure with exit awards (PGCert, PGDip, MSc)
• Eight taught modules covering diagnosis, root canal therapy, materials and clinical portfolio
• Residential week each of the first two years for hands-on practice
• Led by Professor Josette Camilleri, a recognised expert in endodontics
