Programme Introduction
About this programme
🎓 Licensing Exam Prep
✅ Exam-Focused
📊 Structured Practice
The NDEB Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge (AFK) tests whether internationally trained dentists (IDGs) have the dental sciences foundation required for Canadian dental licensure, presented through clinically correlated multiple-choice questions.
Because the AFK links foundational science to clinical scenarios rather than testing facts in isolation, candidates need practice connecting basic dental sciences to realistic clinical correlations.
TerraLeap’s NDEB AFK Preparation course is an exam-focused programme for IDGs targeting Canada, covering dental sciences, clinical correlations, and MCQ practice.
The course covers core dental sciences content, clinical correlation exercises linking science to practice, and extensive multiple-choice question practice in the AFK style.
Structured exam preparation — built to turn practice into a passing score.
