Does the US count English degrees (dental degree from England)?
Or do you still have to go through all that long pain in the rear process because your international?

As far as I know only dental degrees from schools in USA or Canada satisfy educational requirements of licensing dental boards and as such a degree from any other country is a degree from a non-accredited dental school.
Still I would contact the dental board of the state where licensure is desired and ask specific questions.

The degree is only valid on US soil if it's granted from an ADA accredited school. Doesn't matter where that school is.

Just to let you know that not all US dental schools are fully accredited though. So, pick your poison wisely if you don't want to go up and down with your school
