European Dental Internship for Non-EU graduate

[jamesw_90]

Hello all

I am a non-EU/EAA citizen that has recently graduated with a DMD degree from a dental school in Europe. But now I am facing a bit of a challenge and I'm hoping that some kind person here can help me out

Basically, to be eligible to register as a dentist in my home country, I am required to have passed the licensing exam and have completed a postgraduate internship (can't do it at home). I have passed the licensing exam in the country I graduated from but I am having trouble finding placement for an internship due to language level they require and time is ticking. Luckily we are allowed to intern anywhere within the EU. So if you have any information of any postgrad dental internship/residency/foundation programs within the EU that non-EU citizens can part take, please please share. I will be ever-so grateful!

NB: I don't speak any other language apart from English but I am willing to learn

Where did you graduate from and where are you hoping to settle in the long term?

 

[jamesw_90]

Graduated in Poland. Hoping to settle in UK, Ireland, Malta or Canada in the long term
But basically any good English speaking country

These two links answer best for the UK:

Requirements for Newly Qualified EEA citizens wishing to work in NHS GDP — Royal College of Surgeons

www.rcseng.ac.uk

EU graduates and Dental Foundation Training — Royal College of Surgeons

www.rcseng.ac.uk

For Canada you would need to complete their NDEB exams which take a long time so you would be better off starting your career in Europe before attempting Canada

Malta, I have no idea.

Any questions, feel free to PM me
