Overview

Oral health is an essential component of a healthy life. Complex dental work contributes to this, but proper care and prevention are just as important.

While dentists perform specialised treatments, oral health therapists have broad expertise in general oral health care and education.

Our Bachelor of Oral Health is an evidence-based degree that prepares you for providing general oral health care and health promotion. You will:

  • learn in the state-of-the-art Adelaide Health and Medical Sciences building
  • study within a close-knit oral health learning community
  • benefit from early clinical exposure and extensive placements
  • practise using equipment in our Dental Simulation Clinic
  • tackle real-life case scenarios in teams
  • improve lives through our Community Outreach program
You will be part of providing high quality clinical care for all ages. You might develop hygiene maintenance programs for people managing chronic gum pain. You could advise on public health policy or design and implement educational campaigns. Perhaps you'll open an oral health clinic with a team of oral health therapists and dentists you're yet to meet at the University of Adelaide.
