During my tenure at Manchester Metropolitan University, I pursued a rigorous curriculum in Dental Technology, which furnished me with a solid grounding in technical and analytical skills. The comprehensive coursework covered various aspects of dental materials, prosthetics, orthodontics, and digital dentistry technology, preparing me well for real-world challenges in the dental tech sphere. In addition to my academic pursuits, I actively engaged in collaborative projects and hands-on workshops that honed my problem-solving abilities and fostered a collaborative spirit.
