Members don't see this ad.

I had a question I was hoping that someon could answer for me. if someone wants to specilize, is it possible to work full time as a dentist, and someow do the program at night? I know there are many program, say for example, an mba, were you can work full time and take classes nights and weekends?

Hell NO. This isn't some part time career man.

I actually think you can work, but not full time. I think you must work your dentist hours around your specialist hours. It would obviously be very hard to do, but I dont see why you couldn't find another dentist to work for that would grant you part time or flexible hours.

but also once you become a specialist, you can no longer practice general dentistry.

Really? I didnt know that. Is this really true?

This is true, but when in a residency you aren't a specialist yet, so moonlighting (if your program allows it) is fine.
