What is the difference of a DDS and DMD?!


Question:

What is the difference of a DDS and DMD?

I know DDS is [Doctor of Dental Surgery] and DMD is [Doctor of Dental Medicine], when you have a DDS, do you complete surgery and more complex check - ups and as a DMD do you complete the other stuff, also who picks which degree you get


Answers:

There is NO difference between a DMD and a DDS, both dentists receive the very same training. I myself received a DMD degree and I perform all of the same functions and procedures as someone with a DDS degree. Check this website below for more information:
