TePe UK University Programme - Academic Year 2025/26

Delivered by experienced dental professionals, our interactive face-to-face sessions are grounded in current oral health science and clinical guidance. Each module is designed to support students in establishing best practice for oral hygiene instruction, including behavioural strategies and supported by appropriate product sampling. The programme seeks to inspire future dental clinicians in delivering effective, tailored prevention messages aligned with Delivering Better Oral Health (DBOH) principles.

This academic year introduces two exciting new additions to our Dental Hygiene and Therapy portfolio:
