ADG partners with Tipton Training to support dental services provision
The Association of Dental Groups (ADG) is proud to announce a new partnership with Tipton Training to support the future of dentistry by strengthening dental care training and education services for ADG members. Tipton Training courses are designed to enhance clinical skills and workforce career progression.
For 2026, this partnership will enable ADG members to receive an exclusive ten percent discount on all Tipton Training programmes as well as priority access to select workshops and networking events.
The ADG, the trade body for the UK’s ‘mixed economy’, covering NHS, Private and Community-based dentistry, is keen to support dental practice groups, and help ensure the dental industry is on the right path to thrive. Founded by Professor Paul Tipton, Tipton Training, which is Europe’s leading private postgraduate dental training provider, offers a comprehensive range of dentistry courses with certificates and diplomas to help further dental professionals’ careers, ensure excellence and ultimately support patient care and treatments. The ADG and Tipton Training is a year-long partnership starting in January 2026 that will allow ADG members to benefit from access to training which is shown to help elevate a dental practice – delivering financial returns over time through offering more treatment options, helping increase private earnings and improving knowledge and skills[1].
There are courses that cover restorative dentistry, operative dentistry, aesthetic dentistry, dental implantology, dental therapy – as well as Overseas Registration Examination (ORE) courses which help international dentists prepare for and pass the ORE Parts 1 and 2. By supporting performance in the ORE, the courses offer the potential to help plug the significant gap in the dental workforce by helping trained overseas dentists work in the UK.

“At the ADG we believe it is imperative that we look to support the future of dentistry, and part of that is to ensure the very best dental training is offered to the workforce. We must support the future of dentistry and help practice groups grow which ultimately will benefit patient care. We are grateful to Tipton Training for the exclusive offer granted to the ADG and urge our members to sign-up and take advantage of the wide range of excellent training courses.”
Les Pringle, CEO, Tipton Training, said:
“We are delighted to enter into this partnership with the ADG. Working together allows Tipton Training to extend our support to a wider community of dental professionals, helping to enhance skills, confidence, and patient care across the UK. This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to developing an agile, professional, and inclusive dental workforce, and we are proud to offer ADG members exclusive opportunities to advance their careers through our courses.”
