Study dentistry abroad

Hi, I don,t recommend you to study aboard

Hi I want to study abroad for dentistry and I’m aware it can be expensive however I had a gap year and still got no offers and I really want to do dentistry so I decided abroad is the best option. My parents are fully suppprtive however we aren’t a family who’s rich where money isn’t a problem and I need some advice or does anyone know ways we can find to pay off the fees each year as I heard there’s no student loans it’s really stressful and sometimes I wish we had more money to afford it. And I sometimes feel bad putting the pressure of my parents to pay it off and I’m just hoping there’s some type of support we can get

Although it might bbe hard to study abroad due to brexit issues, I would suggest spain (murcia or valencia) might be good options.

Did you get any UK offers yet?

No unfortunately. How about you?

i know a few people who took a gap year or two to work and now studying in europe and come back home during their holidays to work and self fund the rest of their course. the fees are fairly affordable tuiton fees + living costs. have a look at medconnect and which countries may be best suited for you.

Be aware, you need to sit the ORE exam if you have completed dentistry outside the UK (there are a few exceptions). This exam stopped during the pandemic and there is currently about a 3 year waiting list. You cannot get GDC registered to work without it. I know three people who studied in Eastern Europe and they have been waiting to take the exam for 4 and 5 years due to the massive backlog of applicants. One of them works as a dental nurse and 2 are working in unrelated jobs and have given up hope if practising dentistry again.

Really I heard Bulgaria as gdc considered and I had a freind who studied dentistry in uk haris and is now a practising dentist but obviously that was a while back. I’ll look into it though

I would highly recommend looking at spain. It is a much better environment and also it is 5 years instead of 6 (in contrast to bulgaria).
Also, spanish are a lot easier than bulgarian lol.

The only problem is that Spain is £21k per year fees alone. You need to have very wealthy parents to fund that (or else take about 5 gap years lol).
