Upon completing of the second year of study and obtaining the Diploma in Implant Dentistry, participants have the opportunity to complete their dissertation and get the title MSc Computer-Guided Implant Dentistry.

The Dissertation 60 credit module will be supported by live online tutorials with your assigned supervisor, who will provide advice and feedback as you write your thesis. There will be a 2-day symposium where you will present your work to fellow students and faculty members. There may be additional days required, which will vary according to your chosen research topic’s needs.

Also, it is a teaching unit that provides the opportunity to undertake extensive and substantive research. It allows you to synthesize academic knowledge gained from previous postgraduate and experiential learning to produce an evaluated and critical discussion on a specific dental topic directly related to your curriculum.

It aims to help you develop your skills in identifying a problem, recognizing its significance, formulating a hypothesis/suggestion, designing a test case hypothesis, and evaluating results.

Upon successful completion of the dissertation, you will be awarded the title by the University of Bolton.

An academic coach will be provided to support your progress through the programme.
