Hi Mohit, I find it very annoying when boys don't make eye contact while talking to you. They are usually glued to their phones and respond mindlessly when you engage in a conversation. It's an instant turn off but is it also to do with a lack of interest or attraction? How do I tackle this?

Ans: Yes, you can move forward with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS). However, to practice and obtain a license, you need to follow the guidelines of the respective country. For example, in the United States, licensure requirements are established by the state board of dentistry, also known as the board of dental examiners or licensing board. While these requirements vary by state and territory, all licensure candidates must meet three basic criteria: educational requirements, a written examination, and a clinical assessment.

1. **Educational Requirement:**
Nearly all states require a Doctor of Dental Surgery (D.D.S.) or a Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry (D.M.D.) degree from a dental education program accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA).

2. **Written Examination:**
All U.S. licensing jurisdictions require applicants to pass the Integrated National Board Dental Examination (INBDE). This examination, developed in response to changes in educational curricula and instructional methods, was launched in August 2020 and replaced the National Board Dental Examination (NBDE) Parts I and II.

3. **Clinical Assessment:**
Most U.S. licensing jurisdictions require applicants for dental licensure to undergo a clinical assessment. Many state boards of dentistry rely on third-party testing agencies to administer this assessment, and acceptance varies by state and territory.

To migrate to a specific country, be sure to collect detailed information from the respective health department's website.
All the best.
