DENTAL HYGIENE IN CANADA (General Overview Package) 

Me too

So, all sciences and Maths with english is what they require but the level of equivalency is determined by the college. So, if they say that our education back home is not just as equal to here in Canada, then we must do an upgrade course provide by Canada.

@@TheToothFactory can you plz let me know if i didn't had math then what to do?

@@kushpatel4050 first you apply to any college and course you wish to apply to then they tell you whether they will accept you or not and once they respond to you, they also will tell you that you are missing certain courses such as math. And it gives you an opportunity to upgrade a math course as the college wants you to. Once you fulfilled the requirements you may receive a confirmed admission.

@@rishishah1664 how long can this take? if they wants me to fullfill there requirements for math

The only difference is the continuing education. George brown wants the graduates to be from an advanced diploma not just a diploma if you wish to go for the hygiene speciality of restorative hygiene. Otherwise for employment after graduation, there is really not must of a difference.

Does toranto College 18 mnths course offer pg work permit?

@ The Tooth Factory ,I have the same question with Anam, please let us know the answer.thank you.

Hello doctor, welcome to Canada and thank you for your kind words. In your case you are a PR once you land in Canada. Therefore, you would not need to be worried about selecting a specific college or course duration as your residency does not depend on the course. Therefore I recommend that you choose a 18 month diploma course on hygiene in colleges such as Toronto Auxiliary, Vancouver College, Oxford College or Aplus institute. These places offer the same diploma but accelerated instead of regular paced. This will help you get into the field faster. The job prospects are also promising with these institutions. With required documents you would need a WES evaluation for some college applications while some conduct their own evaluations therefore you would need to submit the transcripts from BDS along with your degree and grade 12 education as well. But that is different per college. Therefore do refer the the particular college’s website doctor. Hope this helps.

@@TheToothFactory thank you sir

Ill have to find out which colleges accept students without math involved. We are trying to make a detailed video on dental hygiene admissions in Canada as well. I would have hang in there Ill answer your questions soon.

@@TheToothFactory is there any information regarding the good colleges for dental hygiene without having Maths in class12.

Like mentioned in the other comment of yours, most colleges may require math now however Confederation college seems to be the one that does not mention math on its website. Please do check that out.

Thank you doc😊

Hello, the dental hygiene program is extremely tightly competitive in 2022. The chances are slim normally. It is tough to say what are you individual chances but I can tell you, admissions are not as easy as they use to be.

Sure, you can contact us on our facebook page, the link is on the about box in our channel.

I know for example, CDI and Cambrian colleges did not until last year but many colleges have terminated their Hygiene admissions as of now.

Hello, so in your case I feel emailing the institution you are interested in directly at their own admissions email. This is for the maths details require or not however your profile to me looks really strong and yes you are eligible to apply for the admission process for hygiene as an international student. In my recommendation do look into ontario.

Thank you doctor for your kind words. Ny suggestion will be to opt for PR route directly as your experience age and qualifications are high the only thing that can determine your score to tip towards express entry is your IELTS score now. So imagine doctor if you got a 8 or 8.5 in IELTS then whats stopping you from getting a PR application? And once you do, you have saved yourself from 3 years of struggle and probably 100k dollars. So aim for PR come here and work part time at clinics or labs or even administering jobs and clear your DDS and in three years you can be a doctor vs in three years of student visa you would just be on workpermit.

@@TheToothFactory I got it 🙏🙏 gbu

Thank you doc!

Thank you Doctor. I highly regard the education provided by George Brown College and their quality of training, their facility and job placements are exceptional from their annual records. And some on my friends who have studied there are very well settled and successful. Therefore, I strongly recommend getting education in it.

Hello doctor, Even today Dental Hygiene is a well oriented profession with a high demand in new employment. The salary is higher now than before as an average hygienist makes $40 per hour. However, I wouldn’t consider that a good point as the inflation also increased so it merely compensates it.

@@TheToothFactory Ok. Thanks for the information. 😊🙏

Pleasure is ours doctor

Hello doctor Am looking for collage which offers dental hygiene programs any recommendations please ???

Hello, both options lead you to a PR equally. It is matter of your interest in clinical practice or theoretical and statistical practice. If you like patients and practicing in a clinic then choose Hygiene, otherwise choose MPH.

@@TheToothFactory Sir Do MPH Graduates have jobs position in Canada. ? Like what is the scope . Can we survive in Canada with MPH?

Without a doubt, MPH is a thriving career in Canada and there is a huge emphasis on public health in Canada. You can do well and more than just survive with MPH.

Hello, I find that amazing and fascinating actually. Really nice how you have explored many fields and dental hygiene is really a good field for sure. As far as I know when applicants from different fields wish to join hygiene, there is a course that the colleges have and it is called PreHealth course that is required to be completed. However, if you have a college in mind, I would email the admissions or enrolments team with your credentials and questions. They will guide you for individual colleges themselves. That is my recommendation. Hope that helps!

@@TheToothFactory please email me , Thanks 😊

I mean I would recommend you to email the enrolment office of a college of your choice with your profile and ask about additional admissions requirements.

Hello doctor yes in today’s time, the dental hygiene course is definitely difficult to get into due to low acceptance rate.

Hello, there are some colleges that update their requirements on an annual basis and they may or may not require Maths but majority of the institutions do require it. Your profile will be evaluated based on the college's credential evaluating system, therefore, your 79% must fall within their minimum required GPA for admission. It all varies based on what marks you got in which course. Only the college you apply to is able to give you and accurate answer. In my experience, I recommend you should apply to various colleges are you do have a high chance of getting in a dental hygiene program directly from grade 12. Don't loose hope and keep grinding my friend!

College generally provide placements and it is up to the students to make that placement a future employment with our work. The college or uni does not matter to recruiters. Jobs are highly based on your interview skills.

Hello doctor, firstly congratulations on completing the BDS process! And we applaud your efforts in coming to Canada through express entry. Dental hygiene as a PR is easier to get admission into as well. Once you are in Canada, you would have to apply to a dental hygiene diploma program doctor. This way you will be enrolled into a college and once completed you can practice as a hygienist.

In order to get admission into a dental college for DDS, one must go through the DAT (Dental Aptitude Test) and interviews. This is considering all our international credentials are equally qualified and accepted in Canada, if not then we must go through completing the pre-requisites that would be provided by your applied college.

You are absolutely right about the competition at George Brown. See for international students its meeting the minimum percentage which is 60% that makes us eligible to just apply then the competition if beat by the WES evaluation where our credentials from high school and Degrees are evaluated and graded as a GPA. So the GPA that is highly competitive from a WES evaluation is 3.5 and above. Also your degree is also considered an essential element of competition. Don’t forget many applicants are high school graduates only and with you completing a degree, it puts you ahead in the race by a couple spots. Your high school still counts and your degree adds on to your credentials. There is no interview process for Any college diploma programs it is only the grades that get you in. Now I must tell you, for this year the Dental Hygiene program at George Brown is in hold for international students due to COVID circumstances. So before you apply please do email the college with regards to your will to apply. They will reply within 2-4 business days. They are good at getting back to you.

@@TheToothFactory Thank you for the speedy and thorough response :) I am actually a Canadian citizen! Are they also putting the program on hold for Canadians? I know they did last year due to COVID, not sure they would again this upcoming year.

Glad to hear! Ao for domestics its not technically on hold, what they are doing is limiting applicants so you can be accepted but be put on waitlist instead so your intake will be delayed but not abolished

Hello doctor, to answer your question, 1.) you can work as a dental administrator and level 1 assistant in Ontario more often than other provinces. 2.) you can take the NDAEB exams to become qualified as a level 2 dental assistant to get that job as well. 3.) yes it is mandatory to study at a college in order to become a hygienist

svena singla, for sure doctor we can definitely have a conversation individually on the following link on our facebook page. facebook.com/TheToooothFactory/ Please do message us with your questions on this page.

We will be glad to assist you in any way we can.

@@TheToothFactory thats soo sweet of you

Pls upload more videos abt RDH thnx

So due to the math requirement, pre health is very important to complete

Yes exactly the last exam consists of NDHCB’s license exam which includes all provinces and territories . Once we pass hygiene, we must take this board exam to get this validation across the country.

So doctor, your two degrees are more than enough to qualify you to Study a degree in Canada. I understand your circumstances with your marks in your 12th but when you present your BDS MDS credentials there is no denying admission to you based on your 12th. You will be fine doctor.

Did u get admission in dental hygienist course?

Hello, you are absolutely eligible doctor! Hygiene is a career and assistant is a course you can take to sustain until you become a licensed dentist in Canada. It is faster to get assistant done since we can take two license exams and we are good but hygiene can take up to 3 years to complete.

They look at your grades as an individual evaluation and there will not comparison among others.

Hello doctor, I would only recommend applying to hygiene is you are a PR and like you said you will be here in a couple of years. Then yes DH is a good field of sure for PRs. Along with that MHA will also suit you doctor.

The Fat Vegan hello! In my opinion it is a great institution to study at and is also accredited which lets you take the board exam too. So yes it is a good choice

I'm looking into that school as well. I have coworkers who went there as well, they say it was fine just shorter then George Brown. In my option if you go the private school route the TCADH and APLUS institute are the best ones, or else George Brown is always the preferred college.

@@stephaniegar1006 Hi, how is oxford college for dental hygiene

@Nishi647 I never went there. But honestly, I feel like it's slightly better then TCDHA. The only issue for me was distance because it's located in Scarborough.

@@stephaniegar1006 they have a branch in Mississauga too now

A very good question! So, normally the general insurance package that you are entitled to with your course at your college includes approximately 1500-2500 dollars of dental care in it. The best way to get your individualized insurance policy summary would be to visit your program coordinator at the college.

Hello unfortunately at this time Canada does not have a provision where we internationally trained dentists can practice hygiene directly. We must actually study the diploma itself instead of any exam.

@@TheToothFactory wow. Ok thanks a lot!

Yes unfortunately there are no licensing exams for hygiene in Canada. We would love to see them be provided in Canada but I apologise for its unavailability

Hello, I believe there are a limited number of colleges that offer a January program. You can try visiting this website which will narrow some colleges down for you: www.ontariocolleges.ca/en/programs/health-food-and-medical/dental-hygiene Type dental hygiene in the search box to narrow down results. Hope this helps!

So the admission process is based on a internally rescaled calculated GPA. This way no matter who applies or which country we cane from, our marks will be put on a scale which the college decides and then whoever has the higher scores will get selected until the seats are filled. This rescaling process is confidential to colleges.

We are speaking on behalf of all colleges with regards to the scoring and admission process not just George Brown.

Which college is best for DH?

You should be good as long as you are in Canada. It turns out that many colleges stopped the DH program after SEptember 2020, How are you doing? Are you stable? Also, Hygienists as a career is amazing! High in Demand and not just a job to get you through PR but it is a career!

I have heard and studies stats on George Brown to be the top ranking.

R u bds or MDS?? Nd u have PR?

Dental hygiene is currently a highly competitive course which needs one to beat the competition by having great IETLS scores above 7 is highly competitive. With your prior education, the marks are definitely accounted for and in your case your degree is also in science where you take all the courses required for dental hygiene. However , math is also a requirement. Has that been completed?

@@TheToothFactory I have done maths and statistics in my college 1st year not in 12th. And I'm currently preparing for Ielts. I also saw many colleges had psychology as a prerequisite but I didn't had this subject in both school and college.

With your credentials, I do not think there should be any problem applying for this course.

​​@@whiswhis4335 I did psychology in high school and college it's very subject it's all about memorizing definitions

Hello doctor, your perception of the entire scenario is correct. Bachelors in Dental Hygiene provided by Dalhousie is definetly a promising course and career in Canada and the timeline is just as your explained it as well. The fees are comparatively less however, living costs in Nova Scotia may be expected to rise which means the overall journey will account for a similar expenditure compared to living in other provinces.

Yes absolutely they do not credit any semesters therefore we must finish all 6.

Farhana Sonya Hossain yes doctor there are two year courses such as MPH or even dental hygiene and some colleges i have explained in the video and there is a link for them in the description may offer 2 year program for dental hygiene too. Please do check the website for various colleges and their program length below. Very good question doctor.

Hello doctor unfortunately that myth has been floating around a lot and I am not in the favour of it personally for two reasons: 1.) the employment is never a discriminatory process. Employers are bound tomorrow select candidates based on skill and experience. 2.) my own family member who is a male is a hygienist in Ontario itself and is happy. Hope this helps.

@@TheToothFactory thanks doc. A sigh of relief! Actually my husband is aspiring to pursue DH in Canada, but heard this rumoured gender bias from someone. Although I didn't trust it, but still wanted to confirm. Thanks for clearing the doubt.

Hello, ideally to be able to work in Canada we must study the course in Canada. Direct work is very narrow in its scope. I can find out for you with more authenticity if I could know which course you studied in your degree and diploma and what job you are working in Europe (also mention the country) thank you.

College level courses should be sufficient

Yes doctor normally if they offer prerequisites then they want to offer admission and it surely depends on the scores at those courses as well.

Hello doctor. In your case, you can consider looking into MPH in Canada as an option as well. Dental hygiene seems to have become extremely competitive and many of our international dentists are leaning towards MPH MHA area due to the same reason. You can immigrate to Canada on the basis of student visa journey with such options and considering your BDS and the fact that you would completed MPH in your hometown, you can also use express entry as a direct immigration measure to come to Canada under skilled professional category. So either you can finish MPH and come as PR or you can use MPH as student visa measure to come Canada then later take PR.

No there is no academic reason you visa should be rejected for.

On students visa, it has become extremely competitive and doors have narrowed for DH. We are hoping for an update starting next year but as of now, I would not recommend applying to DH programs in Canada.

It is a highly reputed college and a very competitive program all together. The acceptance rate is based on IELTS score weightage and your prior degree scores as well.

Hello doctor, congratulations on becoming a dentist! And DH in Canada is currently saturated for international applicants. They are accepting applications however, the offers are not being sent out this year. So it would be difficult to carve room into that. If Mph is not of our interest, you can also look into the Office/Health Administration courses such as the one listed below. Many of the international dentists have gone through the student visa journey using this course and then on their work permit/PR part of the journey, they go through the NDEB process. HEALTH CARE/OFFICE ADMINISTRATION DIPLOMA: Average cost: $ 30,000 entirely for full course Conestoga - 2 years 3 Campuses: Guelph, Doon and Kitchner Link: www.conestogac.on.ca/fulltime/health-office-administration

Hello, If I were to go ahead with MPH then what colleges would you suggest? Also is it possible that after joining Health administration, I can discontinue it for 2 semesters and then go on with some other course?

Community college is not much different. They just accept students at a lower mark rate than big colleges. Community generally becomes a bridge between high school marks with low score and a big time college or university. Its not bad at all.

Hello, you would need to pass Hygiene Boards before you can get a license snd practice. Check out this link for more information: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5Mbd3pJR9EU.htmlsi=Qr8JfDXe62sdC9ou

Hello doctor, no no do not hesitate to ask any question as no questions are irrelevant. Everything we discuss can and will help everyone. So thank you for asking. Unfortunately, in Canada Dental Hygiene is a heavily standardised profession and attaining an employment without a license is impossible. However, it is possible for Dental Assisting professions.

Yes we all must take licensing exam after graduation

That is the most perfect way to upgrade our missing requirements like maths. Yes you for sure can.

Hello! Firstly congratulations on your venture and becoming a PR! In Vancouver, this college here in the link is your best bet as it is only 18 months and you being a PR will not cost you as much as an international student as well. www.vancouver-college-dental.org/dental-hygiene-program.html

Following

Alright, so for GB college specifically, maths is required although there are some institutions that do not require that. If in the cases where it a compulsion then you also have the option is complete the required math course online to be eligible. It is really simple in procedure. Also all durations of Hygiene will give us a license to practice. It just depends on how the college wishes to administer the course. about 6 years ago it was a 1 year course too.

So sorry for not replying. We had a massive downtime although we are trying to revive the channel again with better and more content.

@@TheToothFactory Thank you so much :) I've gone through all your recent videos as well. Really helped alot. Please let me know the colleges based in Ontario that offer a 2 year program in DH.

@@arusingla3409 hello there. Just read your comments and wanted to know if u got any update on DH colleges wth 2 yr timespan.

Hello doctor so how I like to recommend the steps to Equivalency of NDEB is: 1.) understanding and reviewing all the types of documents that NDEB requires from us. Use this link below: vimeo.com/786386910 ndeb-bned.ca/equivalency-process/how-to-apply/required-documents/ 2.) actually make the NDEB account using the link below: ndeb-bned.my.site.com/s/login/SelfRegister?language=en_CA&startURL=%2Fs%2F 3.) then finally ask your university to submit the documents that are required and you personally must also begin to formulate the package to submit the documents as per step 1. Also make sure this form in the link below is also submitted with the package of required documents: ndeb-bned.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Equivalency-Process-Form_2022.pdf And finally, Here is the complete guide on how to go through the NDEB equivalency: ndeb-bned.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Application-Guide_Graduates-of-Non-accredited-Universities_2022.pdf Hope this information helps doctor and good luck!

George Brown College will start taking students for the year 2021. This year has been canceled. The pre-requisites for the course is on the GBC website you can check online 🙂

Is there is any entrance test or u can just put an application to take admission in dental colleges in Canada??.....plzz tell🙏🙃

I’m interested too in this course can u contact me ??

@@sukhmanpannu9806 me too

COVID has led them to cancel all admission as of now, as soon as there is an update we will post a video about it.

Farhana Sonya Hossain yes doctor every professional program whether diploma or degree has a board exam to cross but they are fairly easy compared to entrance exams

@@17joyaljoll4 yes for sure! This link consists of all universities and colleges that offer dental hygiene and are accredited by the Canadian Board. www.cdha.ca/cdha/Education/Students/Dental_Hygiene_Schools___Programs/CDHA/Education/Students/Dental_Hygiene_Schools___Programs.aspx

@@rishishah1664 thank you so much sir 😇🙏🏻

Unfortunately visitor visa does not allow study permission.

Hello, unfortunately we must be fully licensed in Canada and to attain it we must complete a diploma. Canada, does not have a direct exam route for Hygienists.

So, the case is that in order to become a part of the dental hygiene program in colleges like George Brown, one must have an Ontario High School Certificate. But, our qualifications across the seas may only match about 50-60% with an Ontario High School, therefore these colleges ask for separate courses to be finished first such as maths or english and in some cases biology and chemistry too.

Hello, yes I have verified the information from a representative from George Brown as well as the website, the updated fees for International students for Dental Hygiene is $13,965 per semester. You are right it is high, very high.

Our video was made a couple years back and since then the costs have gone up. We will make sure to update it as well.

They are able to work after becoming fully licensed at it. Unfortunately in Canada, there is no direct exam route for Hygiene therefore, we must study and pass a diploma course worth 2-3 years.

We must be able to complete a Dental Hygiene diploma here in Canada to be licensed to practice.

So you are eligible to apply for it for sure, however I do not recommend it for you ad MDS is an over qualification when you’re considering dental hygiene on student visa. There is a high chance of visa rejection.

@@TheToothFactory then what's the other way to come to canada coz direct PR thru express entry not possible now for us

Hello doctor, unfortunately there is a requirement for a Registered Dental Hygienist License to work as a dental hygienist in Canada and for that we kist study in Canada in a college. Unfortunately BDS from back home will not be accounted for equivalency in dental hygiene.

So doctor, pre health sciences are consisting of physics, chem and bio and math as pre-requisites. It allows you to page your path to hygiene and many other advanced diplomas. however, when colleges are not covering math in pre health which is very rare I must say, then when colleges are told that my course of interest requires math, then they tend to add math a course adjacent to your ore health as well. In Ontario, it is conducted through a company called the TVO ILC learning. This is the link to their website: www.ilc.org/ So, not to worry doctor.

Absolutely you can it is called upgrading and bridging a diploma into a degree in Canada and you can do it best at University of Toronto. That is my personal top ranking university for dental studies and then comes Western University.

Hello, if you opt for dental hygiene program without any background in dentistry, it will seem difficult however, it is doable. Remember, there are hundreds of students of hygiene who came directly out of high school. It is a matter of dedicating the time and efforts to learning new skills and doing your best. You can do it! There are several dental admins who convert to hygiene without having clinical dental experience. I assure you, you will face difficulty but you will also enjoy it and come out stronger and prosperous.

Cambrian College, Ontario

Hello, so this has been a concern for a very long time as the international education system allows us to pick between math courses to be taken or not. However currently, in Canada, all accredited courses are requiring math but considering you are a PR and will be a domestic applicant, you can work on upgrading it with an online math course prior to your admission. Many colleges offer that sort of an upgrade to allow applicants like us to fulfil the requirements.

Beautiful Creations practicing MDS or even BDS in Canada requires a license and a short course for those two is not available we must go through the process of licensing with the NDEB but dental hygiene is a course that can let your practice hygiene and with a strong job scope too.

Surely we can make a video about available institutions offering open dental hygiene diplomas as of now. Thank you for the suggestion.

Hello sir.Please make a video on this requested topic ( different College's providing dental hygiene diploma that are eligible for 3 uear PGWV)

I completed

As of now, MHA seems to be a better option for Canada. But considering COVID finishes.

i am a bds graduate from Bangladesh... can i do MHA in canada? which University should i pick? what about future opportunity and PR?

@@shafkattipu7504 hello, yes you absolutely can do MHA in canada and for some deeper information our video on MHA and MPH is in this link below. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-eXIQMlhl9cw.html Also the universities that offer this course are limited so I recommend applying to at least 5 they are all National level but in preference of admission and education I personally love University of Toronto. Here is the link for deeper information on each university collegedunia.com/canada/article/masters-in-health-administration-in-canada-comprehensive-course-guide

Hello, glad to see a fellow KMSDCH. My wife and I also graduated from there. The best route for you would be to take a health care management course to come since it will be rewarding to you for your PR process.

Hello doctor, we will always reply don’t you worry. In your case, I believe dental hygiene is not a strong choice considering the admission saturation for that course. Generally it is a 3 year program with approximately $90,000 in total costs Canadian Dollars but because of the restrictions that colleges placed on international admission process for that course, getting a visa for that course will be difficult. So I recommend not considering DH. In my opinion, you should look into Office/Health Administration diploma courses. This way you can land a 2 year program with a solid job prospect during your work permit and also have less than half the costs spent as compared to Hygiene.

Here is a starting point for your research: HEALTH CARE/OFFICE ADMINISTRATION DIPLOMA: Average cost: $ 30,000 entirely for full course Conestoga - 2 years 3 Campuses: Guelph, Doon and Kitchner Link: www.conestogac.on.ca/fulltime/health-office-administration

I also wish to add that we at The Tooth Factory are not a consulting service provider which means we are not licensed to advise for choosing career pathways. We can only help suggest a pathway. We are more academically eligible institution that teaches dentistry.

@@TheToothFactory And thank you soo much for genuine efforts and time ik it is very difficult to reply to each and everyone in this busy world What is the career option for the health administration Or do you please suggest me any course which i can stick to clinical background

Thank you for your appreciation and career options for health care admin is generally clinic manager where the admin is responsible for all duties such as staff management, patient rotation and clinical supplied replenishments. It is a highly prospective career choice and pays above average for sure. The course mentioned in our chats above is what I recommend for your journey in Canada. Diploma in Health Care Administration.

Hello, so yes there are students I know who have joined into Hygiene program in Canada from clearing Grade 12 in India. They require a solid 75% over all above for all grade 12 science and math courses and a high high score of IELTS. That is a basic requirement. We must rely on separate colleges and their own ways of admissions. For example, Colleges such as George Brown has huge competition where a 75% ma not be enough and they may ask you to upgrading courses but some colleges like Cambrian college in Ontario would accept us. Although due to COVID all has been drawn back and there are no admissions until further notice.

So each country has their own dental hygiene board and as an international applicant, we must fulfil their boards requirements which is to pass their exams. And then we can apply for dental hygiene jobs. So for example, for Canada you can follow the process in this video to gain your dental license in Canada and then apply for a hygiene job within Canada. Here is a link to help guide you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5Mbd3pJR9EU.html

Hello doctor, it is very predictable when we apply as a domestic student for hygiene. And I have been to Cambrian college myself and I do recommend the college for hygiene. Confederation is also a great choice and many students apply there as well. However, I do recommend Cambrian.

@@TheToothFactory thank u

You sure are my friend your high school studies you have are enough for admissions

Hello doctor, Yes the US hygiene qualification is valid in Canada as long as you come to Canada and write the boards exam to make you eligible to work in Canada.

@@TheToothFactory thank you so much sir

Hello, so that depends on your current residential status in Canada. If you are planning a Student Visa journey then I would recommend against the private college hygiene programs. However, if you are a PR and wanting to become a hygienist, then Oxford, Toronto Auxiliary and such other colleges are good options.

@@TheToothFactory yes I do have a PR. George brown offers adv.diploma but the private colleges offer diploma. So will that be an issue in getting jobs. Thanks

Good to hear and in this case, it does not make a difference. As ling as you have a registered license for Dental Hygiene, the employers are willing to train new staff. So your platform for achieving hygiene does not matter as much as actually being a good hygienist does. I used to work in a clinic where hygiene staff was a batch from The Canadian Academy of Dental Health (Mississauga campus) which does not offer an advanced diploma.

@@TheToothFactory okay that sounds relieving. Thanks

Pleasure, glad to be at your service

Absolutely, Msc's are brilliant choices along with Masters in Public Health too.

I do not believe physics is a mandate.

To do MSc we must have a bachelors therefore yes after diploma a UG is a mandate in order to progress through to MSc.

University of Vancouver is an amazing choice and their admission process is straightforward as well. I recommend it.

Yes so licenses are provincial. You can practice with a registration of license in the province of your choice. I don’t believe there are any exams there is just a registry process.

@@TheToothFactory You mean if i move to another province then i'll have to register in that province. And there is no exam as such, correct?

Yes it is more so an administrative process than an examination process. Here this link shall clear all your doubts: click on where it says moving between provinces: www.cdha.ca/cdha/Education/Students/Regulation/CDHA/Education/Students/Regulation.aspx

Yes math is a mandatory requirement for at least one of our prior education, it can be of high school or it can be in college. If not available, it can be mitigated by approaching the upgrading course for math that these colleges can also provide.

You can do Dental Hygiene in Canada but as of COVID circumstances, these courses are on hold.

Unfortunately these courses require an onsite education. It is definitely worth it.

Unfortunately in Canada for us to study, we need either a study permit or a PR.

Hello doctor, ai had recently come across this article and I remembered we have the conversation on this comment box. Hope this helps. Looks like an update in your case: www.ctvnews.ca/canada/new-policy-change-allows-some-work-permit-holders-to-study-in-canada-without-a-permit-1.6461776

Sure let me look into it and I shall get back yo you in 24 hours. Don’t worry we will find a college.

@@TheToothFactory thank you

@@souhaanisharma me too.....can't able to find any college as for now they are not enrolling international students ......please inform me too if you find out about this

@@ritikluthra2487 sure!

hey did you get admission in DH program

Elijah Thomas hey my friend! Haha no it is not just for women but it is statistically dominated by female population.

Unfortunately we must have a Canadian certificate to practice Hygiene, from any country.

So that changed from a year to year basis. It depends based on the latest updates like the toronto college of dental hygienists have accepted international students much easier recently for their 18 months program. And I have done it based my on maths included because I have completed my high school in Canada.

Thank you for your reply 👍

Hello, unfortunately in Canada, it is not possible to practice without a Canadian license given by the association here. Dental Hygiene is considered a well distinguished profession where they are highly monitored and standardized.

what is afk

Any Indian dental instruments, micromoter, airoter, handpieces are useful if I bring it.

All the best ... I request you to please notify us back through the comment after your afk exam. Thank you.

Doctor, your choice to secure your back up is amazing. and AFK is an exam which requires utter focus and attention. We shall try not to juggle between any thing while preparing for AFK.

@@annmariyashaji9690 Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge..it is one of the exams with National Dental Examining Board for international dentists to attempt for getting license..AFK is the first exam one should clear ..then there are other exams after this.

Hello ,sure what would you like to know? If you have a list of questions about it, please do write them down here and I shall answer them one by one. It will be best organised that way.
