Are you referring to the "Diploma of Membership of the Joint Dental Faculties at The Royal College of Surgeons of England"?

 

[Ahmed Afify]

yup that's exactly what i mean ,,,,,,so do u have any information

 

[den25]

im sorry got no info abt it.. how different is it from MFDS?

 

[Hope4]

All the info I got is the one they have on their website...

http://www.mjdf.org.uk/mjdf-examination

 

[Ahmed Afify]

MFDS was the old name for it and its no longer used in england but some countries still use it coz the 2nd part in it is more easier than 2nd part in MJDF ,,,,,,,but i think its not a good idea to take MFDS as its no longer used in england

What is the point of having this title anyway? Can you practice in UK with it?

Hi I did part 1 in 2012, I used best of fives, mcqs for dentistry and SAQs for dentistry to prepare. It's really really easy, part 2 was quite hard I would recommend doing MFDS part 2 instead. That had a higher pass rate. I found MJDF and MFDS are almost synonymous.

Good luck!

The exam is basically testing the way you should practice in a general setting. Not a specialist setting. They only ask things that are current. I doubt they would ask in depth perio question. Also they won't ask you to cite literature either. Learn your BPE and what treatment is required for each score as well as what radiographs you would take for eg in a sextant with BPE 4. Learn your radiology guidelines too. IOTN for orthodontics. Good luck!
