Nus Dentistry Notes Hot! May 2026
NUS Dentistry notes
Finding high-quality requires navigating between official university portals and student-led repositories. The Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) curriculum is split into a pre-clinical phase (Years 1–2) focused on basic and oral sciences and a clinical phase (Years 3–4) centered on patient care. 1.

- Physiology.md
- Biochemistry.md
- Week 1 (Active Recall): Cover up your notes. Try to recite the steps of a root canal. Look. Uncover. Repeat. Do not just read the notes like a novel.
- Week 2 (Past Year Papers): Take a past year clinical paper. Try to answer it using ONLY your notes (open book). This trains you to index your notes. Where did you put the information on "Gingival recession"? If you can't find it in 30 seconds, your filing system is broken.
- The "Final Cut": As you approach the exam, create a "Zombie Apocalypse" version of your notes—just one page of bullet points per module. This is the only page you look at in the 30 minutes before the exam.
- For Waxing and Carving: Create a "Cheat Sheet" of specific millimeter measurements (e.g., "Cusp height: 2.5mm").
- For Scaling: Notes on Gracey curette angles.
- For Suturing: Notes on the difference between interrupted and mattress sutures, specifically for the oral mucosa.
