    Hi Conor,
    To be an Army Dentist you need you General Dental Council registration which you will of course receive when you graduate. You can complete your foundation training whilst in the Army and the Military foundation training scheme had a great amount of teaching time on a wide range of subjects with some very highly qualified individuals providing tuition.
    For an application, get it as soon as so you can tick off the different elements - you can schedule your start time in the Army with when you are going to be qualified so there's no too early if applying when you are on your course. Without a bursary, there's no deadline to apply by and our applications are always open - when you start will depend on the intake schedule each year.
