The 5-year DDS Program is an undergraduate-entry dental course which leads high school graduates to a professional degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery, opening doors to dental licensing in Europe and elsewhere.
We realize how important your career pathway is to you and how much effort you are putting in to be able to study in our School. This is why the classes are conducted by professors and doctors with a wealth of academic experience and a solid practical background in the dental health service. Our university dental hospital building includes an outpatient clinic, teaching and research center, and a state-of-the-art dental simulation center.
Doctor of dental surgery is a profession which combines scientific knowledge with manual skills. This is why, starting from year 3 of the studies, your classes will be held in the PUMS Dental Clinic, where you will take part in patient treatment together with our faculty.
Upon completion, successful students will receive the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery, D.D.S. Those graduates who plan to practice dentistry in North America will have to complete two additional years of study in the United States or Canada, making it a total of seven years to obtain a license. It is a standard requirement for all graduates with a foreign degree in North America.
