Bachelor in Dentistry

At Istanbul Kent University, tuition fees are 5,100 USD per year.

Dentistry is a health sciences program that trains students to diagnose, treat, and prevent conditions affecting the teeth, gums, and oral cavity. The curriculum typically begins with foundational biomedical sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and microbiology before progressing to dental-specific subjects including oral pathology, periodontology, restorative dentistry, prosthodontics, orthodontics, and oral surgery. Clinical training forms a central part of the program, with students treating patients under faculty supervision in dental clinics as they advance through their studies. Graduates typically pursue licensure as dentists and work in private dental practices, hospital dental departments, public health clinics, or continue into specialized postgraduate training in fields such as orthodontics or oral surgery. At Istanbul Kent University in Istanbul, Turkey, the Dentistry program is delivered in English over five years at a private institution, reflecting the extended training required for clinical competence in the field. The program combines classroom-based science education with progressively more hands-on clinical practice, culminating in supervised patient treatment during the later years of study. Istanbul's large population and dental care network provide students with exposure to a broad range of clinical cases. Across the five years, students build the scientific foundation, technical skills, and clinical judgment needed for professional dental practice, preparing graduates for licensure examinations and entry into the dental profession after graduation.
