Free diagnostic

A baseline by subject in about 15 minutes.

Twenty single-best-answer questions sampled across all thirteen subjects, weighted as the papers are. No account is needed to begin.

The result shows performance by subject and by paper, and becomes the first version of your study plan.

One readiness estimate. Coverage, accuracy and recency in a single figure, with how confident it is.
Weakest first. Reported subject by subject, so the plan starts with the subjects costing you most.

Study plan and Daily Study

A plan for the weeks you have.

Enter your sitting date and weekly hours. The plan sets weekly targets by subject, weighted by the examination blueprint and your results.

Daily Study builds a session of 10, 30 or 60 minutes from what is due, what you got wrong and what the exam weights most.

Missed weeks are not carried forward. The targets for the remaining weeks are recalculated, so a bad week does not become a backlog.

Ten, thirty or sixty. A ten-minute session is recall and one weak concept. A sixty-minute session adds reading, a mixed set and a timed block.
Why this block is here. Every block states its reason. Due for review, a weakest concept, or a mistake to revisit.
Built from your answers. Assembled from the last fortnight of results, so it starts from your recent work.

The question bank

Questions written to the real specification.

Single best answer questions across Paper A and Paper B, set in clinical scenarios and written to the GDC's published content areas. The examination also uses extended matching questions.

Each one carries a rationale for the correct answer and for every distractor, the principle it turns on, and the trap it is testing. Answering is only half of it: the explanation is where the marks come from next time.

Every subject across Paper A and Paper B
A rationale for every option, not only the right one

Knowledge organiser

Every subject as rules you can recall.

All thirteen subjects are set out as short entries covering the rule, how it applies and the common trap. Each entry cites the UK guideline, regulation or classification behind it.

Entries link to the practice questions and flashcards that test them, so reading and practice stay connected.

Antibiotic prescribing and prophylaxis in dentistry

Antibiotics do not treat a dental abscess; drainage and removal of the cause do. Antibiotics are added only where there is systemic involvement, spreading infection or a patient at particular risk, and the first-line choices, doses and interactions are precisely defined in UK guidance.

The rule

SDCEP Drug Prescribing for Dentistry (3rd edition, 2016) and the FGDP antimicrobial prescribing guidance (2020): for acute dentoalveolar infection with systemic involvement or spreading infection, first line is phenoxymethylpenicillin 500 mg four times daily or amoxicillin 500 mg three times daily for up to five days, reviewed at two to three days; metronidazole 400 mg three times daily for up to five days for penicillin allergy or for predominantly anaerobic infections such as pericoronitis and necrotising gingivitis; in severe infection amoxicillin and metronidazole may be combined; clarithromycin is the alternative macrolide. NICE clinical guideline 64 (2008, amended 2016): antibiotic prophylaxis against infective endocarditis is not recommended routinely for dental procedures; SDCEP implementation advice (2018) describes a small sub-group of patients for whom the cardiologist may advise prophylaxis, in which case amoxicillin 3 g orally 60 minutes before the procedure, or clindamycin 600 mg for penicillin allergy, is used.

Exam trap

Metronidazole interactions: alcohol (disulfiram-like reaction), warfarin (raised INR), lithium (toxicity).

Show distinctions and misconceptions

Localised swelling with a drainable abscess and no systemic upset: drain (through the tooth or by incision), remove the cause, no antibiotic. Fever, malaise, lymphadenopathy, trismus or cellulitis: antibiotic in addition to drainage. Airway compromise or spreading facial cellulitis: urgent hospital referral.
Metronidazole is active against obligate anaerobes only; it is the drug for pericoronitis and necrotising periodontal disease and the alternative in penicillin allergy.
Believing that antibiotics are appropriate for irreversible pulpitis. They have no effect on pulpal pain; the treatment is pulp extirpation or extraction.

Mock exams and readiness

Timed papers, then a readiness estimate.

Mini, Paper A section, Paper B section and full-paper mocks run at three hours a paper, the pace the examination sets, with the same flagging, navigation and review as the examination.

After each mock the report shows the five concepts that cost the most marks and updates readiness by subject.

Early estimates rest on the diagnostic alone. Each practice set and each mock adds evidence, and the estimate narrows as it does.
