About PassDental

PassDental is an independent exam-prep tool for internationally trained dentists preparing for the NDEB Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge (AFK) and Assessment of Clinical Judgement (ACJ). It is built and run in Ontario, Canada.

What's in the bank

200 original AFK questions weighted to the 8 AFK blueprint areas, and 25 original ACJ-style cases with 74 questions across the 6 ACJ areas. A free demo of each (16 AFK questions and 12 ACJ case questions) is open to everyone without sign-up.

How questions are written and checked

• Original. Every question and case is written for PassDental. We never use, request or accept NDEB questions or exam "recalls", which breaches NDEB rules and can cost candidates their eligibility.
• Mapped to the blueprint. Each AFK question belongs to one of the NDEB blueprint areas, and the bank is sized in proportion to their published weights.
• Referenced. Every explanation points to a topic in a title on the NDEB reference-text list, such as Cohen's Pathways of the Pulp or Little & Falace, so you can read further. We cite titles only and never reproduce textbook text.
• Checked against current guidance. Content is written to current Canadian and international guidance, for example the 2021 AHA endocarditis prophylaxis recommendations, the 2017 AAP/EFP periodontal classification, IADT dental trauma guidelines and Health Canada fluoride guidance. Exam facts were last checked 2026-09-27.
• Written with AI assistance, then checked. Questions are drafted with the help of AI and checked for accuracy, a single best answer and plausible distractors before publication. Automated checks also stop common flaws, such as the correct answer always being the longest option or sitting in the same position.
