Hey guys,
I am actually a prospective dental student for this coming fall semester, and I recently have heard of a very unpleasant rumor about dental license. While I highly doubt that this is true, I wanted to double check that with you guys since my future kind of depends on it!
Someone told me that the international student (who does not have any citizenship or permanent residency in the United State, but has studied in the State for high school, undergraduate, and dental school) can not obtain a dental license because of the status as a foreigner. Is it true?
I am thinking that it must not be since if that were the case, dental school should not have accepted the international students in the first place, right?
Is there anyone out there who does not have citizenship or Permanent Residency, and because of that, couldn't get the dental license?
Is there any condition that I have to meet to obtain dental license in America (of course, besides passing the board)? I acknowledge that this question can be somewhat absurd, but I will be more than appreciated if there is anyone who can clarify this confusion for me!
Thank you so much for your time and help in advance!
