Dental Institute

Welcome to the King’s College London Dental Institute, the largest dental academic centre in the UK. We train a quarter of all dentists in the UK and with our innovative approach to online learning provide professional training to dentists from 40 countries world-wide. Our excellence in teaching and research is reflected by top ratings in the last QAA and RAE reviews. Our dynamic multidisciplinary approach to both teaching and research is demonstrated in pioneering work ranging from craniofacial biology through to clinical service provision and innovations in dental education.
