Overview

Who is an oral health therapist?

An oral health therapist is a highly-skilled professional member of the dental team. Oral health therapists have skills in oral health therapy (previously dental therapy and dental hygiene) and oral health promotion. They educate patients about their oral health, and preventive care is a key aspect of their work. They are skilled at promoting healthy lifestyles and have a strong awareness of the socio-cultural influences on health. Oral health therapists diagnose and treat oral diseases (such as gum disease and dental decay), and provide quality care for patients of all ages, including restorative care for children and adolescents.

Health and Conduct Procedure (PDF)

Children's Act 2014

The Children's Act 2014 is aimed at providing better protection for vulnerable children. One of the ways it aims to do this is 'safety checking'.

If you will work with vulnerable children – as part of a specified organisation that provides regulated services – the Act requires you to be 'safety checked' at least once every three years.

The safety check involves:

  • Identity verification
  • New Zealand Police vetting
  • Reference checking
  • An interview
  • A risk assessment

Applicants who enter the programme will receive further information regarding the timing of these checks.

Further information

Culturally-sensitive issues

All students must participate in laboratory, practical and clinical activities, including those that may be unusual in some cultures. In the professional programmes, some aspects of the teaching will require individuals to practise certain techniques on each other that may involve partially undressing or body contact with other students. Training occurs under close supervision and all students are required to participate, as it is essential for their acquisition of clinical skills.

First aid certificate

Important note: All applicants that accept an offer of a place in the Oral Health programme will need to provide, before the start of the programme, a certified copy of an appropriate New Zealand first aid certificate.

Applicants must gain this qualification through an NZQA-registered training provider who is authorised to assess NZQA first aid standards.

The certificate should include at least NZQA Standard 6401 and NZQA Standard 6402, but students are recommended to obtain a qualification which includes the higher NZQA Standard 6400. The following are a selection of recommended training courses:

Immunity status

All applicants who are offered and accept a place to the first year of Oral Health will be required to provide evidence of their serology status.

Because of the nature of their practice, health professionals are required to take steps to ensure they neither acquire infections from their patients nor transmit infections to patients.

Immunity testing arrangements will be made known during December, preceding the start of the programme. It is the responsibility of the applicant to cover all costs associated with completion of immunisation screening and vaccinations.

Please refer to the Infectious Diseases Policy for Health Professional Students (PDF) for further details regarding immunity status.

Domestic place numbers

The maximum number of domestic and international student places available across all admissions categories for 2025 is 50.

Programme content

What will I study?

The University of Otago's Bachelor of Oral Health is an exciting three-year degree at the Faculty of Dentistry – New Zealand's National Centre for Dentistry. The programme delivers excellent and innovative education in Oral Health.

Oral Health students work with undergraduate and postgraduate Dentistry and Dental Technology students. This is made possible because the programme is delivered from within the Faculty of Dentistry. From the beginning of their study, Oral Health students work as part of a dental team.

Oral Health students also have constant access to highly-qualified specialist staff. Graduates will be leaders in the field because the programme ensures its teaching and research are continually refined and improved to keep in step with oral health best-practice. The programme also focuses on enabling its students to be well prepared for lifelong, self-directed learning.

In the first year of the Oral Health degree students learn how the body works, particularly how oral tissues interact with their environment. Students will learn the most effective use of information technology in the study and practice of oral health and will complete a paper in Māori Society. Clinical practice begins in the first year as well; initially students start to develop their clinical skills using models and 'phantom heads'.

The second year introduces pathology, pharmacology, and medicine relevant to oral health. Students will also study a paper in Sociology and in Public Health. A large part of the year is spent developing clinical skills by treating patients under supervision.

The third (final year) concentrates on further clinical training, community oral health, and oral health promotion. Students also undertake a research project.
