What are the requirements to become a dentist?

When you visit us at Advanced Dentistry by Design, you will be impressed by our high tech equipment and newest technology as well as the many diplomas and certificates that adorn our walls. Dr. Clint Euse, Dr. Kelly Euse, Dr. Randy Wright, and Dr. Matt Lisenby are Doctor’s of Dental Science (DDS) but, do you know how much education went into earning those degrees? First the doctor’s had to determine if they possessed the characteristics to become a doctor; an aptitude for science, outstanding manual dexterity, and good communication skills. Next was undergraduate courses – Dr. Wright received his degree from University of Nevada Reno, Dr. Clint Euse from Conzaga University, and Dr. Kelly Euse from University of Utah all focusing on chemistry, biology, physics, and math in preparation for dental school. Before being accepted to dental school, Dr. Wright at University of the Pacific in Stockton, California and the Doctor’s Euse at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska, they had to take the Dental Admissions Test (DAT) and apply for admission to their perspective schools. Their undergraduate grades, score on the DAT, recommendations and interviews were all considered in the admissions process. Four years of dental school followed taking courses in anatomy, microbiology, biochemistry, and physiology in the classroom and lab. They also had clinical courses in periodontics, restorative dentistry, endodontics, radiology, oral surgery, prosthodontics, and oral diagnosis. After graduation was the National and State Boards. These exams are clinical and required them to perform treatment on patients. Once the boards were passed and the licenses were received, the doctor’s began to practice dentistry. Dr. Wright practiced in Reno, Dr. Clint Euse in Iowa and Utah, and Dr. Kelly Euse in Utah before settling in Carson City. As you can tell by the strict requirements and the years of schooling, our doctor’s are passionate about their profession. Each of them exceed the requirements for continuing education required yearly so that our patients receive the most advanced and up to date treatment available.
