A dentist is a healthcare professional qualified to practice dentistry after graduating with a degree of either Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS), DOCTOR OF DENTAL MEDICINE (DMD), Bachelor of Dentistry (BDent), Bachelor of Dental Science (BDSc), or Bachelor of Dental Surgery/Chirurgiae (BDS) or (BChD) or equivalent. In most western countries, to become a qualified dentist one must usually complete at least 4 years of postgraduate study; within the European Union the education has to be at least 5 years. Dentists usually complete between 5–8 years of post secondary education before practicing. Though not mandatory, many dentists choose to complete an internship or residency focusing on specific aspects of dental care after they have received their dental degree.

Training for either degree is usually undertaken after a four-year undergraduate degree is complete. The American Dental Association (ADA) considers both the DDS and the DDM to be equally valid before a dentist takes tests to become licensed.

The dentist, in the loosest sense of the word can be called a doctor, much as one might also apply the term to a professor with a Ph.D. The dentist does receive some training in basic medicine to offer emergency services should a patient have a bad reaction to anesthesia during a dental procedure. However, most of the training in dental schools is specific to the study of the diseases and resolution of diseases of the gums and teeth.

Like a doctor, a dentist can also choose to specialize in a certain form of dentistry. Some dentists become oral surgeons, orthodontists, or pediatric dentists. Many who do not specialize will refer patients with complicated.
