    How to get into dentistry? Short answer: Don't. Especially don't get into PRIVATE institutions. Amount of income vs tuition fee is not proportionate.

    BDS is 5 years. A postgraduate masters degree (ortho, prostho, etc.) is 4 years. You’ll need at least 2 years of working experience as a requirement for masters. Therefore in total, at least 11 years. And that’s already considered fast. Usually it takes longer than that... 💨
