5. University of Washington School of Dentistry
For qualified foreign-trained graduates, the University of Washington International Dentist DDS Program that ranks 5th in our list of best dental residency programs for foreign trained dentists offers the unique opportunity to earn a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and become eligible for board examinations in all 50 US states. The two and a half-year program is modeled after a standard clerkship predoctoral program, with classroom lectures and clinical rotations that emphasize direct patient care. In order to gain admission, applicants must hold a foreign degree from an accredited university that is accepted by the University of Washington, though graduates can ultimately meet requirements for licensure in the state of Washington by earning a degree from one of the school’s graduate programs that provides clinical training.
