Hope this basic outline helps you all and is a one stop place to find all the information in detail. All the links are in the description. As a dental student in USA, a great tip for international dentists would be to train your listening skills. It helps in understanding US accents and eventually helps in faster speaking ability as well. For this I try to listen to most videos or podcasts on multiple speed. Over a period of time I realized that listening/watching at 1.5 to 2x speed keeps me attentive about what is being spoken and helps me take in more information in less time. What are you working on?

@sumansah6447 If one is an international dentist/student it is a required criteria on the university website to get into a US educational program. It is to prove one can actually read, write and understand the English language so that course work will be possible for the person. No matter of the citizenship/green card/visa. English language is not a requirement for US immigration! Two different things! Hope this helps.

Hello Dr. Sam, I am in India right now what all documents should I get ready as I want to appear for the exam at the end of this year. Will I be able to create dentpin? Should I get my ECE evaluation done now? And also LOR and transcripts?

@DrSamthedentisthomie Жыл бұрын

All of the answers are in the video @helidholakia855. Need to improve on your active listening. Yes for all except the last one. But wait on the LOR until you get a visa to travel and clear your exams and start applying for schools. Or you may checkout some of the other videos on the channel for the other details. Good luck dear

@DrSamthedentisthomie Жыл бұрын

Hey @poojita yadavalli, INBDE needs ECE for eligibility. Most dental schools accept ECE as it is more detailed unless specified on their webpages.

Hi! I am from Perú but I don't know if its neccesary to have the dental degree, cause I just have the bachelor degree, so can I apply just with that?

@DrSamthedentisthomie Жыл бұрын

If there is no dental degree then you will need to go through 4yrs of DDS. International dentists can get in at year 3 and then year 4 of DDS. They don't have to complete the whole course again.

Dr Sam i have a question, i m dng my masters in health informatics here n currently on F1, what if i clear the inbde exam ? Do i have to again file for a student visa, or just change the sevis ID Pls explain this ? Thank u

@DrSamthedentisthomie 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Aishwarya, once you clear your INBDE exam, you do not have to change your immigration status/SEVIS right away. After this you will apply to dental colleges and ONCE YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED, you will receive the school's I-20. Then the DSO(Designated School Officer) of your old school and the new schools can guide you accordingly in the transfer process. For more details please check this website www.ice.gov/sevis/f1-transfers

Hey Roma Goklani, are you asking for a hygiene school? It's not a bad idea if you don't want to go into stressful dentistry but would prefer the less stressful hygiene department. Hygienists are comparatively paid too and there is a scarcity for hygienists.

Hey @neeri , it's a practical test for international dentists to get into DDS programs which can include cavity preps, crown preps, endo, temporary fabrications etc on a mannequin depending on the dental school. Some schools have them some don't.
