Practice of dentistry: "The purpose of this section is to demonstrate the extent of your knowledge, background and experiences with the dental profession."

Dental Externship: " A dental externship is generally considered to be a clinical experience that you complete outside the dental school as a part of your educational experience."

Sounds like overlapping information. Any externship can be considered part of practice of dentistry and any clinical work in dentistry can be considered an externship.

So, do I put chairside assisting in practice of dentistry or externship? What about observation of an Oral Surgeon in the operating room - externship?

Any opinions will be valued. Thank you.
 
nevermind. Just realized I've been filling out the application for an international dental student applicant.

yah....i'm an idiot.
