AU24 Bachelor of Dental Technology - Bachelor of Dental Prosthetics Griffith University

  • THÔNG TIN CHUNG

    This dual degree is ideal for those students who are interested in developing hands-on practical skills in designing and making dentures, crowns and bridges, combined with diagnosing, designing and fitting removable dentures directly to patients. For secondary school leavers, it will provide opportunities for specialisation and more opportunities for employment upon graduation.

    Students graduate with two qualifications to be able to work as both a Dental Technician and Dental Prosthetist. Students with a Diploma of Dental Technology should enrol in this degree to increase their opportunities for specialisation. 

    Dental Technologists (or Dental Technicians as they are often referred to) are highly skilled members of the dental team. They combine art and science skills to construct custom-made dental devices such as dentures, crowns, bridges and orthodontic appliances to replace, restore and correct defects that may affect our facial appearance and the ability to use our teeth properly. They generally work behind the scenes in laboratories and not directly on patients.

    Dental Prosthetists work independently with clinical patients to diagnose and treat them when they require removable partial or full dentures.

    PROFESSIONAL RECOGNITION

    The Bachelor of Dental Prosthetics is accredited by the Australian Dental Council (ADC).
