MFDS exam booking step by step

Our mfds exam booking guide explains what overseas dentists need: a common mistake is booking an exam date before building a realistic study plan. Most Part 1 candidates need two to four months of SBA practice and syllabus review before sitting.

Work backwards from your target date: confirm eligibility, allow time for application processing, then book when your practice scores suggest you are exam-ready. Enamel Academy courses support preparation — exam registration is a separate official process.

This MFDS exam booking guide supports dentists preparing for MFDS Part 1 and Part 2 through the Faculty of Dental Surgery. Use our MFDS exam booking resources alongside official CGdent (College of General Dentistry) guidance and Enamel Academy shop courses for structured preparation.

MFDS exam booking — common questions

Where do I book the MFDS exam?

Exam application and booking are handled through the UK Surgical Royal Colleges — not through Enamel Academy. Always use official channels such as the RCS England MFDS exam page.

When is the right time to book MFDS Part 1?

Book when you meet eligibility requirements and your SBA practice results suggest readiness. Allow buffer time for application processing and a final review period.

Should I book before I start studying?

Build your study plan first. Use free SBA questions to baseline your knowledge, then choose an exam date when practice justifies it.

Can I sit Part 1 and Part 2 in the same year?

Some candidates do, but Part 2 requires substantial clinical preparation. Most spread the two parts across separate sittings.

Does Enamel Academy handle MFDS registration?

No. We provide preparation courses and free practice questions only. Registration and exam booking are official Faculty processes.

How far ahead should I book once I am ready?

Allow time for application processing and final SBA revision. Confirm current exam dates and deadlines on the official RCS England MFDS exam page.
