Sep 11, 2017

Hello,

I am an internationally trained dentist and wish to license as a dental assistant for now.

However, I have a query regarding assessment of documents as follows;

"Graduates of a Dental Assisting program (or other equivalent formal allied dental health care program) achieved outside of Canada requires a NDAEB Program Survey provided by the candidate’s educational program clearly indicating the mandatory core skills required for NDAEB exam eligibility were included in that program. If an outline is not currently on file, the NDAEB will contact the program directly to request a program survey on behalf of the candidate. Applicants must provide the NDAEB with the school name, mailing address, email, and name of the program director/ instructor (or other appropriate administrator) of who will complete the survey".

What do I exactly need to do according to this statement? Can anybody please help.

Unless you are from a very select few countries you will not be able to be able to practice as a physician. Most international medical graduates are both required to pass exams and redo their residency. Due to the limited residency spots internationally trained physicians are not able to get a spot and can't practice. You'll have to look at whether you can get certified through the dentistry licensing board but please research whether it is actually possible and other have been able to get licensed as a dental surgeon before moving to Canada.
