Sunday March 6 is the National Dentist Day! To celebrate, we want to give you a glimpse into what it takes to become a dentist. Most dental students begin with a 3 or 4-year bachelor's degree before going through a strict dental school application process. As in the medical school, students in the first and second year have completed courses in biomedical sciences such as anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, microbiology, immunology and pathology. Third and fourth year students focus on clinical practice - diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases. Although they are ready to practice after 8 years, many dentists continue to receive special education and training by adding another 5-10 years of training for such subjects as endodontic and oral surgery.
