I know that typically dental school is around 4 years long. However, I was wondering if there was a way that one can finish dental school quicker just like one can in undergrad as undergrad is typically 4 years long as well but if one were to finish up all the required classes quicker than they can graduate quicker.

So wanted to know if this can also applie to Dental school as well

No, you don't pick your classes in Dental School. They are picked for you since everyone takes the same classes. You have to take classes in a certain order unlike undergrad where you skip around for a lot of them. HOWEVER.....

There are accelerate 6 year programs out there where you get accepted into dental school out of high school and at the end of six years, you get your DS and BS.

ALSO...

UOP is a 3 year dental school program. Everyone graduates in 3 years, so you aren't finishing any classes earlier than your classmates just everyone else who applied that year across the country.
