About the Specialist Endodontics Prometric Exam (END5021)

END5021 is the DHA code for the Specialist Endodontics Prometric exam, and its published blueprint splits the paper across 12 areas: diagnosis, outcome and treatment planning, endodontic pain and emergencies, surgical endodontics, dental traumatic injuries, endodontic pharmacology, regenerative endodontics and vital pulp therapy, endodontic relation with other specialties, endodontic mishaps, classic and current literature, medically compromised patients, patient safety and professionalism and ethics. That list is the syllabus — questions are written to those headings from 7 named reference texts, so revision that ignores it is revision spent on the wrong material.

The sitting is 150 multiple-choice questions in 3 hours — about 1.2 minutes per question — delivered on computer at a Prometric test centre. The 60% pass mark works out at roughly 90 correct answers out of 150. Nothing is deducted for a wrong answer, so an unanswered question is the only guaranteed zero on the paper.

The paper is sat by dentists applying for a licence under the Specialist Endodontics professional title. Specialist is a graded title: the regulator checks your specialty certificate and post-qualification years against its classification table, and a mismatch there is refused on classification rather than on the paper. In practice the exam is rarely the bottleneck: the regulator has to accept your qualification and experience, and Dataflow has to return primary source verification, before a booking slot exists at all. Start that paperwork alongside your revision rather than after it.

This bank holds 1,800 explained questions cut to the same headings as the END5021 outline, each with written reasoning that also rules out the distractors. Retries are unlimited, and the timed mocks run at the real 150-question, 3-hour, 60%-to-pass settings — so the first time you sit this paper at full pace is not the morning it counts.

One body of content, seven regulators. DHA in Dubai, MOHAP across the UAE, DOH in Abu Dhabi, SCFHS in Saudi Arabia, QCHP in Qatar, NHRA in Bahrain and OMSB in Oman all license the Specialist Endodontics title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper, and the overlap between them is substantial. What differs is the pass mark, the classification tier they will grade you into, and how many attempts they allow — not the medicine.

Specialist Endodontics exam — frequently asked questions

What does exam code END5021 cover?

END5021 is the Specialist Endodontics Prometric paper. The code appears on your eligibility approval and on the Prometric booking screen — quote it when you book, because neighbouring grades of the same profession have their own codes and their own papers.

How many questions is the Specialist Endodontics exam, and how long do I get?

150 questions in 3 hours, which is about 1.2 minutes each. It is computer-based at a Prometric centre, and you can flag and revisit questions before you submit.

What is the pass mark for END5021?

60% under the DHA guideline — roughly 90 correct answers out of 150. Nothing is deducted for wrong answers, so leave nothing blank. Other Gulf regulators publish their own thresholds for the same content, so confirm the figure with the authority you are applying to.

Which topics carry the marks in the Specialist Endodontics exam?

The published blueprint names 12 areas: Diagnosis, Outcome and Treatment Planning, Endodontic Pain and Emergencies, Surgical Endodontics, Dental Traumatic Injuries, Endodontic Pharmacology, Regenerative Endodontics and Vital Pulp Therapy, Endodontic Relation with Other Specialties, Endodontic Mishaps, Classic and Current Literature, Medically Compromised Patients, Patient Safety and Professionalism and Ethics. Our chapters use the same headings, so a weak chapter score points straight at the blueprint area to revisit.

Do I need a separate exam for each Gulf authority?

No. DHA, MOHAP, DOH, SCFHS, QCHP, NHRA and OMSB each license the Specialist Endodontics title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper built on the same content. What changes between them is the pass mark, the classification tier and the attempt limit — so one body of preparation carries across, but each application is its own file.

What do I need before I can book END5021?

An eligibility approval from the regulator — your qualification and experience accepted against its classification rules — plus Dataflow primary source verification returned on your degree, licence and experience letters. The booking window opens after that, not before, which is why the paperwork should run in parallel with your revision.

Was worried about my English medical vocab. The explanations are written simply - non-native speakers will feel at home.

The team on WhatsApp answered my licensing questions within an hour. That kind of support you don't see with the big test-prep sites.

Local candidate here - passed MOHAP without an exam thanks to the eligibility route they showed me. Then I enrolled anyway for CPD.

Solid. A couple of image-based questions could use better resolution but nothing that changes the answer. Passed DHA tech exam.

The explanations after each question are what sold me. It's not just A/B/C/D - you actually understand WHY the answer is right. Cleared MOH Sharjah last month.

Best MCQ prep for GCC allied health hands down. Chapters are digestible, and unlimited retries meant I could grind the hard ones without anxiety.

The 3-month plan was enough for a repeater like me. Skimmed the strong chapters, hammered the weak ones. Passed.

Affordable pricing that still delivered quality. Coming from Sudan the currency conversion was important - the checkout showed my local price which built trust.
