    The Dentist with Enhanced Skills (DwES) accreditation, previously known as Dentist with Special Interest (DwSI), is an NHS recognised status that allows you to provide Level 2 / Tier 2 intermediate endodontic care in primary care settings. Within the NHS, this means you can accept referrals through a formal managed clinical network and access enhanced NHS remuneration for complex cases.

    A number of simplyendo graduates and current delegates have already been successfully accredited across various regions of the UK. You can see for yourself here.

    Why our training is good preparation: PG Diploma Year 2 content closely aligns with the curriculum requirements.

    You can begin the application process whether you have already completed the simplyendo training or are still partway through it.
