Dentist
Are you an internationally qualified dentist seeking a career in the UK?
Insignia Global Partners is seeking to provide our client with a minimum of 100 dentists per year for the foreseeable future and we are super keen to hear from qualified, experienced dentists worldwide.
To practice as a dentist in the UK you must register with the General Dental Council (GDC) and the first step is to familiarise yourself with the Overseas Registration Exam (ORE).
What is the ORE?
The ORE tests the clinical skills and knowledge of dentists whose qualifications are not recognised in the UK. Candidates are expected to meet or exceed the standard of a ‘just passed’ UK BDS graduate.
A candidate is expected to be able to show competence, knowledge and familiarity in the different aspects of dentistry.
Both parts of the exam are mapped to learning outcomes and a candidate could be tested on any dentistry aspects in this document.
The exam uses modern assessment methods to ensure a robust and consistent exam. The exam has two parts.
Part 1 is a written exam designed to test application of knowledge to clinical practice
Part 2 is a clinical exam designed to demonstrate practical clinical skills

Once you have sucessfully completed the ORE you will be able to register with the GDC. The team at Insignia Global Partners will hand hold all candidates through the recruitment and HR process to ensure a smooth and sucessful outcome for you to be able to practice in the UK.
