NEBDN Dental Nursing Course With Paid Practical Placement

Are you looking for a fulfilling, secure, and financially rewarding career in healthcare, but don’t know where to start? Becoming a qualified dental nurse is one of the most reliable and exciting career paths in the UK today. Better yet, you don’t need any prior experience to get started.

At London Waterloo Academy, our NEBDN Dental Nursing Course With Paid Practical Placement allows you to earn while you learn. This 1-year, part-time Level 3 Diploma provides the ultimate blend of expert classroom instruction and real-world, paid experience.

Here is everything you need to know about starting your journey toward becoming a registered dental professional.

Why Choose the NEBDN Level 3 Diploma in Dental Nursing?

The National Examining Board for Dental Nurses (NEBDN) Diploma is an internationally recognized qualification regulated by Ofqual. It is fully aligned with the General Dental Council (GDC) Safe Practitioner Framework.

Completing this course means you will be fully eligible to register with the GDC as a Qualified Dental Nurse. This unlocks career opportunities across private dental surgeries, NHS clinics, and hospitals.

Key Benefits of the Course:

• No Experience Required: We teach you everything from A to Z.

• Earn While You Learn: Gain a minimum of 16 hours of paid work experience per week at a dental practice while studying.

• High Exam Pass Rate: Our academy boasts a spectacular 98% exam pass rate, supported by a team of dental professionals, dentists, and examiners.

• Flexible Study Options: Balance your lifestyle with our hybrid/blended mode of study (combining traditional class-based tuition with virtual/livestream Zoom learning).

The Power of a Paid Practical Placement

Finding a job when you have no prior experience can feel like a catch-22. That’s why our course is specifically structured to bridge the gap.

While students without a placement are given a conditional 3 months from the start of the course to secure one, London Waterloo Academy makes this process simple. We are consistently approached by private and NHS dental surgeries seeking our high-caliber students for Trainee Dental Nurse positions.

As a registered student, you will get exclusive access to our list of partner practices. Working a minimum of 16 hours a week, you’ll earn a trainee salary (averaging around £23,000 pro-rata per annum) while building the essential hands-on skills required for your Record of Experience (RoE).

What Will You Learn?

The comprehensive curriculum covers everything a modern dental nurse needs to deliver exceptional clinical support. Key modules include:

• Health & Safety and Infection Control in the Dental Surgery

• Dental and Oral Anatomy (Structure of a tooth)

• Assisting with Patient Assessment and Radiographs

• Responding to Medical Emergencies

• Professionalism, Communication, and Teamwork

Classes run just once a week for 2 hours, giving you plenty of time to manage your employment, study requirements, and personal life.
