you need to join dental school for 2-3 yrs depending on the university to get ure DDS/DMD degree in order to get ure liscence to practice.
for that u need to give ure NBDE part 1 , TOEFL
ADA will require u to get ure grades evaluated from ECE(get a course by course evaluation done )

u need not take the kaplan courses , the review books are good enough , but lot of people have different views, thus search the topic, there are numerous threads on the above topics.decks and old papers are a must to study.
hope this helps ,
