What subscribers say
The SLE Orthodontics Qbank was helpful overall. Plan time for a second pass through growth and development.
Dr. Achieng KipronoEach explanation compared treatment options, which helped with planning questions.
Dr. Shweta BhosaleThe malocclusion classification and diagnosis questions were very clear. I liked that the questions went beyond naming the classification and asked what it means for treatment. That extra step made my revision much more practical.

Questions before you start
Do you offer Qbank (question bank) free trial?
Yes.

Click Free Trial on the QBank page and sign in or create a free account to start. No payment card is needed.
Who is eligible to sit the SLE Orthodontics exam?
Before subscribing, check that you meet the exam board's eligibility criteria:
- Primary dental degree: A recognized BDS, DMD, or equivalent dental degree from an accredited institution.
- Specialization in Orthodontics: A recognized postgraduate qualification in Orthodontics -- Master's, Diploma, or equivalent -- from an accredited institution, including a recognized residency program.
- Post-qualification clinical experience: Generally at least 2 years of clinical practice in orthodontics after completing your specialization -- notably shorter than the roughly 3-year requirement used by DHA and DOH for the same specialty, though your own exact requirement should be confirmed directly with SCFHS.
- Valid license & Good Standing Certificate: An active license to practice in your home country (or country of last employment), plus a Certificate of Good Standing typically valid within the last 6 months.
- DataFlow Primary Source Verification & Mumaris Plus registration: All educational, professional, and licensing documents verified through DataFlow, plus an active registration with a valid eligibility number on SCFHS's Mumaris Plus portal before booking your exam.
Can I be exempted from the SLE Orthodontics written exam?
Orthodontists holding credentials such as MOrth RCS, FRCD(C) Orthodontics, or American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) certification are generally considered to have a strong chance of qualifying for an SDLE exemption. Exemption is never automatic, however -- verify your own exemption status directly with SCFHS before planning your application timeline around it.
Where do these Qbank questions come from?

Every question is checked against standard orthodontic references and current guidance (British Orthodontic Society (BOS) and AAO guidance, the IOTN and IOFTN indices, ADA and FDI guidance, and CDC infection-control guidelines), and comes with a detailed explanation, an exam pearl and a quick comparison table.
