This course will cover all aspects of the use of digital photography in dental practice: intra-oral, extra-oral, and portraits. Participants will be taken through photography from the basics to choosing correct equipment, setting up equipment to optimum settings, techniques for consistent imaging and the safe storage of images. The course is taught by the team that delivers the online Masters Degree course in Advanced General Dental Practice from the School of Dentistry at the University of Birmingham UK, and will involve about 6 hours per week of your time.

Social interaction is central to the FutureLearn experience, enabling people to learn actively by engaging in conversations around the learning material, or vicariously, by following discussions.
