King’s Dental Institute scored 86.4 overall, with 83.1 for academic reputation and 89.2 for citations per paper, moving up the global table from seventh place in 2015, to the number four position.

Executive dean Professor Dianne Rekow said: “Rising to fourth in the global rankings reaffirms our position as a world class institution and reflects the dedication, commitment and innovation of our academic and professional staff, our students, and our alumni.”
