What level of education is required to be a dentist?
The road to becoming a dentist usually takes four additional years after achieving an undergraduate degree. The first step is obtaining an undergraduate degree and being accepted to an accredited dental school. From there, they must complete extensive in-classroom and hands-on training to earn their Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) or a Doctor of Dental Sciences (DDS) degree. Then, to maintain their license, they must complete continuing education courses each year.
