About the Program

The Dentistry (Zahnmedizin) program focuses on preventing, identifying, and treating dental issues. It combines theoretical knowledge with practical skills in a cross-disciplinary treatment concept. The program is divided into a preclinical section (1st-4th semester) and two clinical sections (5th-6th and 7th-10th semesters), each concluding with a state examination. Practical skills are emphasized, with training on dental simulation models (phantom head). The program requires scientific aptitude, manual dexterity, technical understanding, and communication skills. Graduates can work in dental practices, clinics, medical care centers, universities (teaching and research), public health, military medical service, dental chambers, dental/pharmaceutical industry, or pursue specializations in orthodontics, oral surgery, pediatric or geriatric dentistry.
