Learn the UK answer and the reason for it
ORE questions are set for a newly qualified UK dentist. Every explanation gives the reasoning and the UK guidance behind the answer, so you learn what the examiners expect, not just which option was right.
- Original questions written to the GDC's ORE topics and learning outcomes
- Answers based on SDCEP, NICE, BNF, FGDP(UK), BSP and Delivering Better Oral Health
- Practice by topic or mixed, with instant feedback
See your weak spots before the exam does
Your Readiness Score day by day, accuracy by topic with the weakest first, and every timed mock exam against the pass line. One click on a topic starts a drill on it.
- Topic accuracy updates after every question
- Mock exam scores plotted against your target line
- The Today list sends you to your weakest topic first
Remember it on exam day, not just tonight
Spaced repetition brings each card back right before you'd forget it. Cards you miss return in 10 minutes. Cards you know wait days or weeks.
- Guideline numbers, drug doses and anatomy that get tested
- 15 new cards a day, so reviews never pile up
- Mastery feeds straight into your Readiness Score
Turn every missed question into a point
Every question you get wrong is saved with its explanation. It only clears after you get it right twice in a row, so lucky guesses don't count.
- Re-test all your mistakes in one click
- See the right answer and the guidance behind it
- Shows how many you've cleared, to keep you going
Walk in having done it before
Timed mocks with no feedback until you submit, the way exam day works. Each ORE Part 1 paper lasts 3 hours, and you sit both on one exam day, so stamina matters.
- Full-length timed mocks for Paper A and Paper B
- Quick 25-question mocks for a lunch break
- Two full simulations count toward the Pass Guarantee

Questions before you buy
Can I try it before I pay?
Yes. Open the study dashboard free with no signup, or take any exam's free practice test. You only pay when you want the full question bank, timed simulations and every study tool.
What if I buy it and it's not for me?
Because you get the full question bank and study materials the moment you pay, all sales are final. Try the free test and the free dashboard first so you know it suits you. The one exception is the Pass Guarantee: complete the full prep, and if you still fail, we refund 100%.
What if I study and still fail?
That's what the Pass Guarantee is for. Answer every question in the bank, read every study topic, pass 2 timed simulations and reach a Readiness Score of 80, then sit your exam within 60 days. If you don't pass, send your result notice within 30 days and we refund 100%.
Is it a subscription?
Yes. Premium is £107 a month per exam (about £3.52 a day) and renews monthly until you cancel. You can cancel in two clicks from your account, and there's no minimum term. Most people study for 1 to 3 months. If you want a whole year for one exam, the yearly plan is £963 for 12 months (3 months free) and renews once a year until you cancel.
How long do I keep access?
For as long as your Premium subscription is active. Cancel any time from your account and you keep access until the end of the month you've paid for.
Are these real exam questions?
No one can legally sell the actual exam questions, and sharing ORE material breaks the GDC's rules. Ours are original questions written to the GDC's ORE topics, format and difficulty, with an explanation for every answer and the UK guidance behind it, so you can check our reasoning.
Is the content up to date?
We check every exam page against the General Dental Council's ORE pages and show the date it was last checked. In November 2026 that included the Part 1 format (two 3-hour papers), the £485 fee, the August 2026 pass marks (50.5% for Paper A, 54.3% for Paper B) and the published sitting dates. Clinical answers follow current UK guidance.
Which UK guidance are the answers based on?
Current UK sources: SDCEP, NICE, the BNF, FGDP(UK) Selection Criteria for Dental Radiography, the BSP, Delivering Better Oral Health, IR(ME)R 2017, HTM 01-05, Resuscitation Council UK and the GDC's Standards for the Dental Team. Where UK practice differs from your home country, we teach the UK answer, because that's what the ORE marks.
Are you affiliated with the General Dental Council?
No. OREPart1Prep is an independent exam-prep company. Overseas Registration Examination, ORE and General Dental Council are names of the GDC, used only to describe the exam we help you prepare for. The GDC doesn't endorse any ORE preparation course.
Both ORE Part 1 papers
Each exam has a free practice test and a study guide. Premium adds 3,000 practice questions, 6 full mock exams, 800 flashcards and 60 comprehensive key notes per exam, organized topic by topic.
ORE Part 1 Paper A: Dental Science and Human Disease
Paper A is the science half of ORE Part 1, the written exam overseas-qualified dentists must pass before the ORE Part 2 clinical exam and GDC registration.
ORE Part 1 Paper B: Clinical Dentistry, Law, Ethics and Health and Safety
Paper B is the clinical half of ORE Part 1. It covers clinical dentistry (restorative, endodontics, periodontology, prosthodontics, paediatric dentistry, orthodontics, oral surgery, oral medicine and radiography) plus law, ethics and health and safety as they apply in the UK. You sit it with Paper A and must pass both in the same sitting.
