Here is what the Bachelor of Oral Health qualification offered by Adelaide University covers and who it is designed for.
Oral health therapy students graduate with dual qualifications in dental hygiene and dental therapy. There is a strong focus on developing skills to prevent disease and manage oral health conditions with an adult restorative scope of practice.
When you study to be an oral health therapist, you will work closely with professional dental practitioners and learn to perform a range of preventive and minor restorative tasks, educate the community on self-care oral health practices and provide evidence-based oral health therapy methods for treating patients of all ages.
