The Doctor of Dental Surgery is a research based qualification that can be taken either full time or part time.
The programme is aimed at those in the dental profession who wish to develop high level research skills by pursuing original research in the field of study, relating particular research to the general body of knowledge in the field, and presenting the results of the researches in a critical and scholarly way.
Edinburgh Dental Institute (EDI) works in partnership with two major organisations to deliver high quality education, research and patient care.
The activities of EDI are as a result of strong cooperation and collaboration between the University of Edinburgh, NHS Lothian, NHS Education for Scotland and the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh.
Our welcoming and friendly environment offers great opportunities for high quality education and research.
Our transferable skills programme delivers generic training in presentation, project management and writing skills.
The EDI was established in 1999 to develop education opportunities for dental postgraduates and the dental team.
We have excellent facilities and are situated centrally within the historic and vibrant capital of Scotland.
We are located in Lauriston Place in central Edinburgh and occupy the top three floors of the Lauriston Building, a dedicated out-patient centre for dentistry and a number of other medical disciplines.
