Royal Army Dental Corps

Dental Officer

The Royal Army Dental Corps (RADC) is responsible for the maintenance of the British Army's dental health. 

RADC personnel serve in dental centres, in many locations throughout the world, but they are soldiers too, and have a role within field hospitals during military operations.

Life in the RADC offers a great deal more than team work and achieving high professional standards.

There are also plenty of opportunities for sports, adventurous training, social clubs and associations as with all other Corps and Regiments within the Army.

Whichever RADC trade a soldier adopts, it will provide a full and rewarding career with excellent training, standing him or her in good stead when the time comes to return to civilian life.
