“I dropped from five to four days, yet my income has doubled. 50% more weekend, 200% earnings!”
Dr Ross Pencovich, TA graduate
For practice owners · Bridge Dental Care, South Wales
Four associates. One training plan.
Led by Dr Len Smart, the practice's associates completed Totally Composite in 2020, then Totally Aesthetics from 2021. Their private income grew from around £492k in 2020 to around £1.26m in 2022, and Denplan patients reportedly grew from 923 to 1,577 between January 2021 and January 2023. Dr Smart has since sent more than 20 dentists through Freshdental education.
Self-reported pre- and post-course survey data. Monetary figures are approximate gross private income derived from income bands. Practice figures as reported by the practice. Individual results vary.
“I never thought that one course could change my life so much. This course reminded me why I wanted to be a dentist in the first place.”
Dr Diana Panchea
What you'll learn to do
Every technique on Totally Composite is used every day at Freshdental Clinic. These are some of Dr Monik Vasant's own composite cases.
Real dentistry from every module
From smile design to full-mouth rehabilitation, this is clinical work from each part of the diploma, all treated by Dr Monik Vasant at Freshdental Clinic.
“The course has given me the tools, knowledge and confidence to go fully private and take on bigger smile makeover cases that I would previously have shied away from or referred on.”
Dr Aimee Saracco-Jones
Is it right for me?
Which dentist are you?
There is no single Totally Aesthetics delegate. Here's what the programme did for dentists who started where you are now.
Predominantly NHS and feeling stuck
Create options beyond NHS dentistry
3 in 4 who started predominantly NHS moved into mixed or fully private dentistry. Their median monthly private-income band rose from under £2,000 to £6,000–£8,000.
“I started this year as a predominantly NHS dentist who has now become a partner in a private practice.” Dr Graham Lister
In mixed practice and plateaued
Stop referring the dentistry you want to do yourself
Learn to plan and deliver the multi-tooth and multidisciplinary cases you currently refer on, with the systems to do them predictably.
“The course has given me the confidence to step away from single tooth dentistry.” Dr Sing-Yee Chan
Already fully private
Take your dentistry to another level
Of dentists already fully private before TA, 96% gained confidence and 89% say they became better dentists. Almost 1 in 5 added £10,000+ a month in gross private income.
A young, ambitious associate
Fast-track your progression
Among graduates under 30, around 57% added £4,000+ a month and around 1 in 4 added £10,000+.
“…an opportunity to advance my career in a single year more than dental school ever did over five.” Dr Jamie Adamson

Name
Lorem ipsum
Dr William McLeish
Best course I’ve ever done. Completely changed my career. Made me actually enjoy dentistry. Thank you so much.
Dr Neel Patel
Incredible course. Since completing all the programmes my career trajectory has been near vertical. It’s ignited a passion for dentistry that I felt had eroded over the last decade. I’m now offering work confidently to patients that I used to dream about.
Dr Amir Ahmad
This course is a real amalgamation of specialities. The centre is a great place to learn. Using the phantom heads really made my practice lifelike, which I could then go into work the next day and do without any adjustments or difficulty. Monik is great at simplifying different specialties and bringing them together so treatment planning becomes much more simple but incredibly thorough. I would definitely recommend the diploma and the work being done all over the country by TA alumni really represents the quality of the course!
Dr Jamie Daniel Adamson
Completing the Totally Aesthetics course has opened up the gateway to completely revolutionise my career. It has provided me an invaluable opportunity to advance my career in a single year more than dental school ever did over five. I would and have been recommending this course to every dentist looking to up their game.
Dr Diana Panchea
I never thought that one course could change my life so much! Before this course my confidence was -20, now it is +100! This course reminded me why I wanted to be a dentist in the first place. Thank you for helping me get out of the place I was stuck in and for making me realise I can do more and be more in my life. Every day is “show time” and I love it!
Dr Nishil Patel
Before I started the course I was treating predominantly NHS patients and performing standard NHS restorative work. I did not feel confident in undertaking more advanced restorative and cosmetic treatments. I now love going into work and providing my same NHS patients, who wanted advanced work which I could not provide, with many different private cosmetic options. A massive thank you to Monik and the whole team at FreshDental for this life changing experience!
Dr Simrun Seyal
“Monik’s work seemed magical and impossible, however in 2 days he showed that we too can achieve that magic.”
Dr Evert Burger
One of the nicest and most down to earth presenters I have ever seen. It was a perfect course, enough content and a lot of things to take home and implement immediately. I was really surprised with how much I learnt. It was really fun and I recommend it to all dentists young and old.
Dr Amrinder Baidwan
An absolutely amazing course. Before starting this course, I was working in a mixed NHS practice and feeling like I had hit a wall, even though I had only been working a few years. Since finishing the course, I feel like I love dentistry again. I am doing things I like to do, feel more confident and have left the NHS and work in a fully private practice. Monik is an exceptional mentor who does not hold back on sharing his knowledge and skills. Would recommend this course to any dentist. I would rate this course 100/10!
Dr Faizan Ali
A well rounded course which helped me develop the confidence in completing the cases I would usually shy away from. Can't recommend Monik and the team enough! Thank you so much for all the support and banter throughout my journey into becoming a totally aesthetics graduate.
Dr Treana Wu
“This fantastic course boosts clinical skills and confidence in all aspects of dentistry. Monik and his speakers are knowledgeable and provide excellent practical tips and tricks that are game changing for your career”
Dr Aimee Saracco-Jones
The course has given me the tools, knowledge and confidence to go fully private and take on bigger smile makeover cases that I would previously have shied away from or referred on. It has made my time at work far more enjoyable and rewarding, with the added bonus of an increased monthly wage. The course quickly pays for itself and my only regret is not completing it sooner.
Dr Ross Pencovich
The course has been phenomenal. It's changed the way I work and it's made me enjoy my work significantly more. For anyone unsure about going on the course - I dropped from 5 to 4 days yet my income has doubled. 50% more weekend, 200% earnings!
Dr James Wellick
Fantastic course. Monik has completely changed how I approach aesthetic cases and general dentistry. I think the course was perfect for me having not completed any postgraduate training year courses before and filled so many gaps in my teaching after dental school and FD year.
Dr Natalie Connolly
I decided to complete the TA year long course after having completed the Totally Composite courses and really enjoying them. I did not anticipate just how much I still had to learn after 14 years in dentistry. The course completely changed the way I work. It improved both my clinical ability and my confidence in taking on more complex cases. I started to enjoy dentistry again, and as a bonus my annual turnover doubled within the first 12 months of starting the course. The teaching facility is excellent, the course content covers all aspects of restorative dentistry and Monik is an excellent and knowledgeable mentor. I cannot recommend this course enough!
Dr Justin Glaister
The best composite course I’ve been on to date and I’ve done them all. Whether you have been qualified 20+ years like myself or newly qualified, it provides the perfect mix of science, real world application and tips to transform dentistry in your practice.
Dr Sana Husenbhai
This is without doubt a career changing course. Monik's passion for minimally invasive dentistry and providing the best patient care is reflected in all aspects of this course. I have gained something from each day - which can be used straight away in practice. Going on this course has improved my confidence in all aspects of general dentistry and has allowed me to begin more complex aesthetic treatment safely. Not to mention I have gained friends for life. Thank you to Monik, the Fresh Dental Institute team, and all the lecturers for their hard work - it's been a brilliant year!
Dr Zamena Janmohamed
“Totally aesthetics has been a life changing experience to my dentistry. It has totally evolved the way I work and the standard of my aesthetic dental work has improved immensely. One of the big things this course has provided me is more confidence in completing complex smile makeovers. I would definitely recommend this to all dentists at any stage in their career!”
Dr Jonathan Thomas
“I came across Monik’s work on social media and it was so amazing that I came all the way from Hawaii to figure out just what he was doing. The protocols and techniques he taught were amazing and will change my composite game for good.”
Dr Adam Lane
“Hands down the best and most valuable course I’ve done. Wish I could’ve done it 10 years ago!”
Dr Alexander Cook
TA took me from an enthusiastic dentist a few months out of FD who was already feeling the burnout of 6500 UDA contracts to a chilled out fully private practitioner enjoying the dentistry every day. There’s now not a single compromise on quality, everything is now gold standard protocols.
Dr Shen Ai Kerrine Lee
This course has completely changed my career. I used to be stuck in the NHS grind but now I'm in a private practice close to home, doing work that I love. I always felt awkward having conversations with patients about elective cosmetic work but now it's a natural part of my workflow and they don't feel like they're getting the “hard sell”.
Dr Ryan Holland
Before TA I was seeing 30+ patients a day, constantly running into lunch and staying late doing notes which led to me feeling burned out pretty quickly. Even from the early days of TA you instantly start seeing a return on the investment made. Monik's tips not only on dentistry but also on diary management made a massive and immediate impact on the dentistry I was doing, my income and, more importantly, the enjoyment of working in dentistry started to come back.
Dr Thomas Metselaar
This year has been truly life-changing for me. I am now enjoying work more, have over doubled my private income and am doing work I never thought I could do.
Dr Henry Furbank
Amazing year. Gained so much, I love a protocol and Monik gives you a protocol for every eventuality. What Monik doesn't know about adhesive dentistry isn’t worth knowing. And he breaks down the knowledge into manageable retainable chunks. Money well spent. Course practically paid for itself in the first 3 months.
Dr Rosanna Busuttil
“An exceptional course- do not miss this. It should be mandatory post-grad training! Monik is completely passionate about his subject and is a kind and sympathetic teacher. I feel empowered to start the aesthetics journey.”
Dr Reza Aria
“I first attended the Totally Composite course which itself changed my restorative dentistry. Then I got on the Totally Aesthetic course which was a game changer. Very well structured, comprehensive and superbly delivered by Monik and his team. It is a definitive must for all dentists wanting to raise their game. No matter what age.”
Dr Zain Ul Abadeen
Monik and his team have transformed my career over the course of 12 months. I am much happier and confident with my work. I have landed my dream job at a fully private practice where I am able to practise all the skills learnt from him. Could not recommend this course enough!
Dr Mani Reehal
“The best course I’ve been on. The tips and tricks alone are enough to transform your dentistry. Amazing aspect. Aimed perfectly at the GDP”
Dr Graham Mark Lister
This is a life changing year. I started this year as a predominantly NHS dentist who has now become a partner in a private practice. This course gave me the confidence and skill set to take my career to the next level. Monik and the team have had a huge impact on my career path. I will be forever grateful. If you’re looking for a course to transform your career, this is it.
Dr Gurleen Mann-Grewal
This course is a complete GAME CHANGER! Before this, I was feeling fed up with dentistry but Totally Aesthetics has given me the confidence, the skills and the workflows needed to transition into fully private dentistry. I absolutely love work now and if you are thinking about signing up for this course - take this as your sign to do it!
Dr Navin Sivanandam
“This course has completely changed the benchmark of the dentistry I aspire to be able to practice. It was enlightening and his expertise of composites cannot be overstated.”
Dr Rajvir Dutt
TA has been an extraordinary turning point in my professional journey, transforming both my skills and my confidence in aesthetic dentistry. When I embarked on this journey, I was working in a mixed NHS and private role. However, the knowledge, techniques and inspiration I gained from Totally Aesthetics allowed me to seamlessly transition into a fully private position and, ultimately, to establish my own private practice. This course is not merely an investment in skills but a gateway to a new standard of professional fulfilment and success. It has redefined my career.
Dr Charlotte Elspeth Buchanan
The course was very extensive and really helped me to gain confidence in offering and completing more advanced restorative and aesthetic treatments.
Dr Dilen Patel
TA was everything I needed to evolve into a more confident aesthetic dentist. It gave me skills, abilities, knowledge and new friends. I can't thank Monik and his team enough.
Dr Michal Gwizdala
The course was a game changer. All of the complex aspects of modern private dentistry have been presented in an easy-to-implement way. I highly recommend the course to everyone who wants to become a better and more confident dentist.
Dr May Bassett
When I commenced the programme, my practice was 90% NHS-oriented, but my aspiration was to transition into private dentistry. Thanks to the skills and confidence gained from this course, I've successfully achieved this goal. Presently, 90% of my practice comprises “happy dentistry” involving cosmetic and orthodontic patients. I cannot thank Fresh Dental enough for fundamentally altering my professional pathway for the better.
Dr Marwa Arzoky
It has been an amazing journey. I have met great people and learned so much. It is by far the best Aesthetic and restorative Diploma course. Thank you Monik and the lovely team for everything.
Dr Claire Andrews
This course has completely changed my career and life, it was the best decision I ever made. My confidence has increased massively, helping me secure some incredible jobs locally. I am now completing cosmetic cases daily and I'm loving my job.
Dr Richard Ellingham
“TA changed every aspect of my practice- for the better. I know more, I know how to assess better, plan better, advise better. The change improved my work, notes, communication, quality, restorative longevity. It puts you in a new level. I'm glad I just went for it without ruminating whether it was worth it. TC was great, TA was the switch from average to the next league. I commend Monik and his great team on his teaching, preparation, research and above all encouragement to practice the type of dentistry I want to do.”
Dr Tabassum Mahmood
I used to feel anxious doing aesthetic dental treatment but since completing the course I am more confident because I now know how to treatment plan an aesthetic case. The amount I paid for the course I have made back with doing private treatments, so I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to invest in their career and improve their dentistry.
Dr Michelle Conlon
I was so lucky to do this course at the start of my career when I was struggling in private practice. I am now so proud of the work I am delivering and have noticed my patients have become happier and I am getting a lot more positive reviews. Whilst the monetary gain is great, the quality of work I am delivering is much more satisfying.
Dr Imran Nisar
What Monik has created is something totally unique. It has transformed me from an NHS dentist doing a few private cases to virtually a fully private dentist, so my utmost appreciation and thanks to Monik and Totally Aesthetics!
Dr Virinder S Nazran
“This course should be compulsory for all dentists!"
Dr Calum McKie Hutchison
Total game changer. Has completely changed my approach to dentistry. From the exam process right through to tackling the larger aesthetic cases, my confidence has improved massively as has the quality of work I am producing. The course more than pays for itself after the first couple of days and thereafter it just keeps going! Absolute belter of a year!
Dr Christopher Beech
Monik's course has helped to completely change the direction of my career from working as a full time NHS dentist to private practice with a huge focus on aesthetic dentistry. The course has given me the skills and confidence to make this transition and I can't recommend Monik highly enough.
Dr Claudia Stanley
Fabulous year course, full of great tips and tricks. I would recommend the course to any dentist at any stage of their career. Thank you very much again for helping me become a better practitioner. I have increased my confidence and learned so much about assessments and what cases I can take on.
Dr Geeta Mahtani
Absolutely transformational year. My income has more than doubled but I am a better dentist, I enjoy my job more and feel every aspect of my career has improved. The course was delivered in a very comprehensive way. It was not overly complicated yet not patronising either. I am so grateful to the whole team. The best investment of my career!
Dr Molly O'Neill
I cannot recommend this course enough - it has completely transformed my career! I now have so much more confidence in myself and a broader range of knowledge towards what is the absolute best outcome for my patients, causing positive patient feedback and income increasing as a result.
Dr Magdelena Rybak
“Absolutely brilliant! Worth every penny! Honestly a life changing course”
Dr Rakhee Raichoora
Really great course. Learned a lot, made lots of friends and enjoyed all the course days. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to improve their dentistry and be confident at delivering private work of a good quality.
Dr Samuel Cope
From being a predominantly NHS dentist and starting to lose faith in the profession I considered packing it in and changing my career. After coming on the course I was able to spark a new love for dentistry. Monik’s energy, lectures and techniques allowed me to regain my confidence in dentistry and remind me why I came into the profession.
Dr Laura O’Sullivan
“It’s really special to have someone as gifted and experienced share his tips, tricks and expertise. It was awesome. Essential for any dentist. One of the best educations out there. Seriously….sign up now! You’’ll be amazed what you achieve”.
Dr Sing-Yee Chan
A truly life changing course. Completing the course has given me the confidence to step away from single tooth dentistry and has totally changed the way that I approach any case. Everything now makes complete sense. I am now able to really enjoy dentistry and am proud to provide care that is top quality. If I could give one piece of advice - do the course!
Dr Amy Harper
“I judge the quality of a course by the amount of applicable tips I gain that I can apply. Totally Composite has by far exceeded my expectations. I have never gained so much from a course and it will change my daily practice. I would highly recommend it, no matter what your level of experience. Monik is a world class speaker, very engaging with incredible knowledge.”
Dr Stephen Hudson
“Having done several composite courses by the big names, I can say this is the one I learnt the most from.”
Dr Liliya Ekova
“I can't recommend the TA course enough. I never enjoyed restorative dentistry very much. Monik changed my attitude completely! He managed to show me a different, more enjoyable and creative side of it. From start to finish Monik puts 100% in his teaching. He doesn't want you just to"attend" the course. He wants to help each and every delegate to become the best they can be and even more!”
Dr Thomas Metselaar
This year has been truly life-changing for me. I am now enjoying work more, have over doubled my private income and am doing work I never thought I could do.

Dr Nishil Patel
Before I started the course I was treating predominantly NHS patients and performing standard NHS restorative work. I did not feel confident in undertaking more advanced restorative and cosmetic treatments. I now love going into work and providing my same NHS patients, who wanted advanced work which I could not provide, with many different private cosmetic options. A massive thank you to Monik and the whole team at FreshDental for this life changing experience!

Incredible course. Since completing all the programmes my career trajectory has been near vertical. It’s ignited a passion for dentistry that I felt had eroded over the last decade. I’m now offering work confidently to patients that I used to dream about.

Dr Zain Ul Abadeen
Monik and his team have transformed my career over the course of 12 months. I am much happier and confident with my work. I have landed my dream job at a fully private practice where I am able to practise all the skills learnt from him. Could not recommend this course enough!
Dr Molly O'Neill
I cannot recommend this course enough - it has completely transformed my career! I now have so much more confidence in myself and a broader range of knowledge towards what is the absolute best outcome for my patients, causing positive patient feedback and income increasing as a result.
Dr William McLeish
Best course I’ve ever done. Completely changed my career. Made me actually enjoy dentistry. Thank you so much.
Dr Geeta Mahtani

The course was delivered in a very comprehensive way. It was not overly complicated yet not patronising either. I am so grateful to the whole team. The best investment of my career!
Dr Aimee Saracco-Jones
The course has given me the tools, knowledge and confidence to go fully private and take on bigger smile makeover cases that I would previously have shied away from or referred on. It has made my time at work far more enjoyable and rewarding, with the added bonus of an increased monthly wage. The course quickly pays for itself and my only regret is not completing it sooner.
Dr Graham Mark Lister

Dr Jamie Daniel Adamson
Completing the Totally Aesthetics course has opened up the gateway to completely revolutionise my career. It has provided me an invaluable opportunity to advance my career in a single year more than dental school ever did over five. I would and have been recommending this course to every dentist looking to up their game.
Dr Imran Nisar
What Monik has created is something totally unique. It has transformed me from an NHS dentist doing a few private cases to virtually a fully private dentist, so my utmost appreciation and thanks to Monik and Totally Aesthetics!
Dr Henry Furbank
Amazing year. Gained so much, I love a protocol and Monik gives you a protocol for every eventuality. What Monik doesn't know about adhesive dentistry isn’t worth knowing. And he breaks down the knowledge into manageable retainable chunks. Money well spent. Course practically paid for itself in the first 3 months.
Dr Diana Panchea
I never thought that one course could change my life so much! Before this course my confidence was -20, now it is +100! This course reminded me why I wanted to be a dentist in the first place. Thank you for helping me get out of the place I was stuck in and for making me realise I can do more and be more in my life. Every day is “show time” and I love it!
Dr Ryan Holland
Before TA I was seeing 30+ patients a day, constantly running into lunch and staying late doing notes which led to me feeling burned out pretty quickly. Even from the early days of TA you instantly start seeing a return on the investment made. Monik's tips not only on dentistry but also on diary management made a massive and immediate impact on the dentistry I was doing, my income and, more importantly, the enjoyment of working in dentistry started to come back.
Dr Shen Ai Kerrine Lee
This course has completely changed my career. I used to be stuck in the NHS grind but now I'm in a private practice close to home, doing work that I love. I always felt awkward having conversations with patients about elective cosmetic work but now it's a natural part of my workflow and they don't feel like they're getting the “hard sell”.
Dr Michelle Conlon
I was so lucky to do this course at the start of my career when I was struggling in private practice. I am now so proud of the work I am delivering and have noticed my patients have become happier and I am getting a lot more positive reviews. Whilst the monetary gain is great, the quality of work I am delivering is much more satisfying.
Dr Alexander Cook
TA took me from an enthusiastic dentist a few months out of FD who was already feeling the burnout of 6500 UDA contracts to a chilled out fully private practitioner enjoying the dentistry every day. There’s now not a single compromise on quality, everything is now gold standard protocols.
Dr Amrinder Baidwan
An absolutely amazing course. Before starting this course, I was working in a mixed NHS practice and feeling like I had hit a wall, even though I had only been working a few years. Since finishing the course, I feel like I love dentistry again. I am doing things I like to do, feel more confident and have left the NHS and work in a fully private practice. Monik is an exceptional mentor who does not hold back on sharing his knowledge and skills. Would recommend this course to any dentist. I would rate this course 100/10!
Dr Natalie Connolly
I decided to complete the TA year long course after having completed the Totally Composite courses and really enjoying them. I did not anticipate just how much I still had to learn after 14 years in dentistry. The course completely changed the way I work. It improved both my clinical ability and my confidence in taking on more complex cases. I started to enjoy dentistry again, and as a bonus my annual turnover doubled within the first 12 months of starting the course. The teaching facility is excellent, the course content covers all aspects of restorative dentistry and Monik is an excellent and knowledgeable mentor. I cannot recommend this course enough!
Dr Ross Pencovich
The course has been phenomenal. It's changed the way I work and it's made me enjoy my work significantly more. For anyone unsure about going on the course - I dropped from 5 to 4 days yet my income has doubled. 50% more weekend, 200% earnings!
Dr Liliya Ekova

Dr Reza Aria
“I first attended the Totally Composite course which itself changed my restorative dentistry. Then I got on the Totally Aesthetic course which was a game changer. Very well structured, comprehensive and superbly delivered by Monik and his team. It is a definitive must for all dentists wanting to raise their game. No matter what age.”
Dr Zamena Janmohamed
“Totally aesthetics has been a life changing experience to my dentistry. It has totally evolved the way I work and the standard of my aesthetic dental work has improved immensely. One of the big things this course has provided me is more confidence in completing complex smile makeovers. I would definitely recommend this to all dentists at any stage in their career!”
Dr Treana Wu
“This fantastic course boosts clinical skills and confidence in all aspects of dentistry. Monik and his speakers are knowledgeable and provide excellent practical tips and tricks that are game changing for your career”
Dr Adam Lane
“Hands down the best and most valuable course I’ve done. Wish I could’ve done it 10 years ago!”
Dr Dilen Patel
TA was everything I needed to evolve into a more confident aesthetic dentist. It gave me skills, abilities, knowledge and new friends. I can't thank Monik and his team enough.
Dr James Wellick
Fantastic course. Monik has completely changed how I approach aesthetic cases and general dentistry. I think the course was perfect for me having not completed any postgraduate training year courses before and filled so many gaps in my teaching after dental school and FD year.
Dr Charlotte Elspeth Buchanan
The course was very extensive and really helped me to gain confidence in offering and completing more advanced restorative and aesthetic treatments.
Dr Rakhee Raichoora
Really great course. Learned a lot, made lots of friends and enjoyed all the course days. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to improve their dentistry and be confident at delivering private work of a good quality.
Dr Faizan Ali
A well rounded course which helped me develop the confidence in completing the cases I would usually shy away from. Can't recommend Monik and the team enough! Thank you so much for all the support and banter throughout my journey into becoming a totally aesthetics graduate.
Dr Michal Gwizdala
The course was a game changer. All of the complex aspects of modern private dentistry have been presented in an easy-to-implement way. I highly recommend the course to everyone who wants to become a better and more confident dentist.
Dr Amir Ahmad
This course is a real amalgamation of specialities. The centre is a great place to learn. Using the phantom heads really made my practice lifelike, which I could then go into work the next day and do without any adjustments or difficulty. Monik is great at simplifying different specialties and bringing them together so treatment planning becomes much more simple but incredibly thorough. I would definitely recommend the diploma and the work being done all over the country by TA alumni really represents the quality of the course!
Dr Claudia Stanley
Fabulous year course, full of great tips and tricks. I would recommend the course to any dentist at any stage of their career. Thank you very much again for helping me become a better practitioner. I have increased my confidence and learned so much about assessments and what cases I can take on.
Dr Marwa Arzoky
It has been an amazing journey. I have met great people and learned so much. It is by far the best Aesthetic and restorative Diploma course. Thank you Monik and the lovely team for everything.
Dr Sana Husenbhai
This is without doubt a career changing course. Monik's passion for minimally invasive dentistry and providing the best patient care is reflected in all aspects of this course. I have gained something from each day - which can be used straight away in practice. Going on this course has improved my confidence in all aspects of general dentistry and has allowed me to begin more complex aesthetic treatment safely. Not to mention I have gained friends for life. Thank you to Monik, the Fresh Dental Institute team, and all the lecturers for their hard work - it's been a brilliant year!

FAQs
Find answers to commonly asked questions about our courses.
Who is the course suitable for?
General dentists who want to plan and deliver bigger, more complex restorative and aesthetic cases with confidence.
Do I need to bring anything for the course?
We will email you a month in advance before every course day to let you know exactly what is required for you to bring for that specific course and everything else we provide for you!
How often will I need to travel to London?
Just 9 times in the year. The 17 teaching days are grouped into 8 double days and 1 single day, which keeps travel and hotel stays to a minimum if you’re coming from further afield. Everything else is covered through our online learning platform.
What are the requirements for doing the course?
You need to be a fully registered, qualified dentist. You’ll also need to complete our 2-day Totally Composite course, which you can do any time before day 3 of the diploma, so you can book both together.
When is the right time to do the Totally Aesthetics course?
Whenever it suits your career. Some delegates join straight after Totally Composite; others join months or years later.
What are the outcomes I can expect after doing the course?
Clinically, the confidence to plan and deliver comprehensive restorative and aesthetic treatment. Academically, the PgDip Rest&AesDent (FDI), with the routes set out under Your qualification.
Can I defer to a later intake if I need to?
Of course. We understand that life doesn’t always go to plan. If you need to move to a later cohort, just let us know at least 8 weeks before your original start date and we’ll happily transfer your place.
Because each cohort’s places and preparation are confirmed well in advance, we’re unable to offer a deferral within the 8 weeks before the start date, and the full course fee would remain payable.
Is the reservation deposit refundable?
Your reservation deposit secures your place on your chosen cohort, so we’re unable to offer a refund on it. If your plans change, you’re welcome to defer to a later intake, as long as you let us know at least 8 weeks before your original start date.
