It will progressively replace the existing membership examinations of each faculty (MFDS and MFGDP(UK)) from autumn 2007. The examination is designed to assess the competencies set out in the new Department of Health foundation training (GPT) curriculum, but is relevant and available to all dentists wishing to obtain a postgraduate qualification.
