Each dental school has its own admissions requirements. Research these criteria before planning any pre-professional curriculum. Dental students must apply for admission and take an admission test before entering dental school. A bachelor's degree or at least two years of college is usually required to enter dental school. An additional two to three years are required to practice in a specialty area.
Most dental schools conduct a four-year program leading to a doctoral degree in dentistry.
