Ans: BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) is an undergraduate program in dentistry, while PharmD (Doctor of Pharmacy) is considered a postgraduate course. After completing a PharmD, one must consider pursuing a doctorate program, and there are currently no specializations available in India. However, abroad, you can claim expertise in a specific department.

On the other hand, after completing BDS, you can pursue a specialization at the postgraduate level and also have the opportunity to open your own clinic (ENTREPRENEUR) within 7 years and which is not possible with PharmD.
