Introducing the Kana Dental
Academy
The Kana Dental Academy has one simple aim. We want to connect the greatest speakers in the world with the most eager and progressive minds in the country.
The idea of the KDA was conceived when we realised that there was an incredible void in teaching courses within the middle of the UK. So much is focussed in/around London or up north. This is wonderful for delegates based in these areas, but very much a hindrance for anyone who would be required to commute those large distances.
Our eventual mission will be to ensure no UK-based delegate, wanting a postgraduate dental degree, will have to travel more than an hour to obtain it. This will allow progression for those with young families, for example, and open up endless career possibilities without sacrificing on a work/life balance. The belief is that all of this is achievable without sacrificing on the content being taught.
12 Month PG Diploma Programme in Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry – Based in Milton Keynes (EDUQUAL Level 7)
The Kana Dental Academy is proud to present its inaugural course and qualification; The PG Diploma in Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry.
We have 12 action-packed, hands-on and engaging days and some of the best speakers on the planet!
We have made this course unique in 4 ways:
- The primary method of teaching each unit will be hands-on
- Each course will be heavily focused on communication, and using communication to integrate your new skills seamlessly into general practice
- Obtain your PG Diploma in 1 year
- No formal written exam or OSCEs

PG Diploma in Aesthetic & Restorative Dentistry
This first year of the Kana Dental Academy brings you a PG Diploma in Aesthetic & Restorative Dentistry at our Training Suite based in north Milton Keynes.
The structure of the Kana Dental Academy’s Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry Programme is that you choose the 11 most appropriate courses for your learning style out of 13 courses. Therefore, we have searched far and wide for the most variety, in terms of topics, in any course out there.
Hands-on and real-life, usable skills
We’ve all been there. You attended the most amazing course on a Saturday and then it hits Monday morning and nothing. This is normally the case for two reasons; you either didn’t have enough practice, or you don’t feel you have the support.
We are proud that each of our courses will be focussed on hands-on training. You will also have unparalleled support throughout the programme and beyond so that you get the most for your learning.

What is the investment involved?
Our promise to you is to be upfront about the investment. We will always tell you the full fee amount. It’s just a little thing but as many dentists are not VAT registered, therefore you need to know your total investment and not how it’s calculated!
A wise man once said, “cash flow is king!” therefore to help our full-course delegates, you may spread your investment over 12 months interest-free.
We use GoCardless to obtain payment. This can be paid securely online. As such, we offer two options for payment. Our full-course delegates are able to spread the investment over 12 months interest-free for £657 per month (via direct debit) or via a one-off payment for the first-year rate of £7880.
Individual courses can be booked by heading to ‘Book Individual Courses’. A one-off payment of ££695 will be taken before the course start date via an online form.
