ACTA stands for innovation in dental education. One major innovation is the Simodont, a top quality, highly reliable dental simulator. Students use Simodont units to develop their manual skills in a realistic virtual world. In the process, they get feedback on their decisions and abilities. Simodont is changing the way that students learn and the way in which they master competences.

ACTA’s world-class dental research focuses on the physiology and pathology of the tissues in and around the oral cavity. Aside from infectious diseases such as caries (tooth decay) and periodontitis (inflammation of the gums, for example), there is a focus on topics such as hard tissues, the jaw system, the oral mucosa and salivary glands. Other areas under the spotlight include dental abnormalities and social dentistry.

The Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam (ACTA) has room for new patients. At ACTA, you get very personal attention, and your teeth receive university-level dental care. We are happy to take all the time that you need. All treatments are clearly explained, so you know exactly where you stand. All this, and special rates too!
