Hey Jay Patel, it all depends on you your grasping power. Everyone is different. On an average a minimum of 3-4 hrs along with work would be enough. But some people need more time as well. Identify your time based on your study methods.
Thanks for this information.May I know ,is there any time limitations to be registered before the exam? Someone told me that one should be registered at least 1 year before the exam.
Hi Dr.Sam...thanks for the information...quick question...I gave part 1 6yrs ago...and got a break due to some reasons...what is my next step if I want to take exam...Im now a green card holder
Hey @deepthivmi , You will still need to do the INBDE . Because part 1 and part 2 is now discontinued. And INBDE has part 1 and 2 subjects. So will have to study accordingly.
Hello Dr.Sam, i m an international dentist from INDIA and i want to do my DDS in USA. I recently came to USA to do my masters in Health informatics at UWM (which doesn’t give me the privlege to be a dentist) but back in my mind I know I always wanted to be a doc. I was very confused with multiple information from different sources and two days back my RUclips recommendations got me here. I m glad u shared the info which is so crisp and clear. I will ping u here if i have any further queries regarding the exam Thanks Love Aishwarya
Hello aishwarya I am also a international student from india and it would be great if you can help me I just completed my bds from india and wanna practice dentistry in usa so should I need to take inbde now and whats the procedure to become a dentist in usa I'm so confused 😢 Can you plz help me

thank you so much for the great video i have just one question when do you recommend to start studying for INBDE for someone who is on 3rd year of dental school ?
Hey Patea , Start studying now with the practice tests. Slow and steady like 25-50 questions everyday. 🙂Take your INBDE once you are done with your 4th year exams before you get started with internship/residency/ work. Subjects will be more fresh and easier for you that time. You can do it 🙂Good luck with everything.

dr sam , do we have to study part 1 materials! bec i noticed based on mental dental youtube channel & other examiners , that probably part 1 not having big section in exam! or sort of out of focus , what are you insights on that > plz advice
@Andrew Isaac, If one does like 4-5 revisions of part 2 subjects then I would atleast do 1-2 revisions for part 1 as well. It's not like it's completely discarded out of the syllabus. I would prefer to be prepared more than be under prepared and be sorry for not remembering things 😉 my 2 cents. Good luck
Hello Dr Sam thank you for your video, I’m glad I found your page. I’m currently a 2nd year dental student in Poland and would like to practice in the states. I’m starting 3rd year soon and I’ve started my research on the process of getting licensed in the US, and is it possible to take INDBE before graduating if well prepared of course ? Of course coming to the states on a visiting visa to take it but is It compulsory for you to have graduated first ?
Hey Uchechi Onyeachu, You need to get an eligibility letter signed from your home country school's Dean saying you have cleared all the necessary courses+ ECE evaluations sent to JCNDE to be eligible for INBDE. Do you'll have to do 1 yr internships after 4years in Poland? If all the finals are completed by 4th year then I suppose you might do it then. But not in 3rd year. When it was NBDE part 1 and part 2 they had different rules. You could do that initially but not anymore. Hope this helps. 😊
@@DrSamthedentisthomie thank you so much for your quick reply 🥺 Yes it helps! Oh I meant starting to prepare from 3rd year and taking it 4th year so yes. We have 1 year internship “our 5th year” so I believe I can get this signed eligibility by then, thank you so much for you help
hello dr thanks a lot for all helpful information. i was wondering is there integrated format of dental decks and first aid book and dentin book or we have to buy part 1 and 2 ??
Hey Divyanshu, I think this video might help you better in reading and understanding stuff in dental school from first year itself. ruclips.net/video/YE842jwB224/видео.html Please check our website for important books. Good luck 😊
Hi Dr. Sam, that was a good video. I want start my preparation but i am confused, i am not knowing which subject to start from. Can you please give some suggestions.
Hey Akhila, it totally depends on you😊 I would always Start with a subject with I found hardest to remember. Spend more time on it. Do the things which you know well later. Spend less time on these.
Hello. How easy is the visa acceptance for international dentists willing to give the exam in the States? Does the visa fall under tourist visa category?
Hey Zeenat, starting early is a good idea. It will help you in your dental school studies as well. As you would be introduced to a lot of new subjects henceforth, you might want to follow this route in learning something new for the first time and remembering everything for the exams 1. ruclips.net/video/YE842jwB224/видео.html 2. ruclips.net/video/-St3dV0B2hE/видео.html Hope these help. :)
Good day Doc :) Thank you so much for the awesome video I really appreciate it with your fantastic video I didn't get challenging to apply but I got a couple of questions. 1. If I re-apply for the INBDE due to failure or fail will I still need to make ECE again? 2. is there no expiration of INBDE? Like Tofel? 3. 5 attempts / 5 years mean what will happen after 5 attempts also fail? (Just want to prepare everything to be insurance)
Hey @Hanju Park, thanks for the kind words. Ans 1. No ECE again. But will have to pay for the exam again. 2. No expiration for INBDE as such. But depends on the program directors of schools if they would like it after certain years. 3. After 5 yrs /5 fail I suppose one could start again. Or probably change fields. Haven't thought so much. Most people try to get it in 1-3 attempts.
@@DrSamthedentisthomie thats so terrific guide While i was preparing many of dr. Or student do recommend bootscamp inbde and as for your suggestion do you recommend it as well dr?
thank you for this great video. I got few questions. so first aid books are for NBDE 1 and NBDE 2 right? if I am studying for inbde, do they have first aid book for the integrated one or do I just read part 1 and part 2 together? also what do you think about dentin INBDE book?
Great question Leroy, as of now first aid has part 1 and 2 only so will need to do those both for all the subjects. When they publish an integrated one then one can take that. .
Hi Harjot , It will be different for everyone as everyone will have different subjects that they might have found difficult. Most often you can plan a schedule to use atleast 1 week for a subject. Use active recall. Some people like to do different days in a week with different subjects. Meaning once you have read one subject /topic on day one, then read some other subject for the second day and day 3 try to recall what you did on day 1 and revise/ read what you don't remember. That way it doesn't waste time and also you will end up having multiple revisions of the subject matter. This is a great question and I will try to make a video on it soon to help you in detail Harjot. 🙂
Hi @ThePiki123 , You can either buy the Mosby's part 1and 2 or buy the First Aid part 1 and 2. This is because part 1 of both will have only the basic sciences subjects and part 2 for both will have subjects like Endodontics, Operative Dentistry, Oral/Maxillofacial Surgery and Pain Control, Oral Diagnosis, Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry, Patient Management, Periodontics, Pharmacology, and Prosthodontics. Since having 4 books might be quite expensive I would recommend you select either one with both parts. And thanks for pointing it out, I have fixed the links in the description. 🙂 Here you go First Aid part 1 amzn.to/3AQX6Dr First Aid part 2 amzn.to/3AY5fq1 Mosby's Part 1 amzn.to/3D27Gd0 Mosby's Part 2 amzn.to/3z2axQs
Nope Yagnesh Mantha. Unfortunately overseas residency candidates cannot join a program transferring credits to dental residencies in the USA. You will have to give exams (TOEFL, INBDE, GRE in for some colleges) and apply via PASS / MATCH to various schools Ortho programs in USA. Then once accepted, can join them. Hope this helps .
Hey Hossein, after clearing your INBDE and TOEFL, start applying to schools if you are international. You may check here for all the steps ruclips.net/video/2iLK1xgVAKE/видео.html
You could do that long time ago but nope you cannot work in Canada anymore just after clearing INBDE. Canada has NDEB and probably some state exams as well. And you will have to go through school in Canada or the US before you can start working as a dentist in Canada as well. INBDE is like the final exam here. You still have to take state specific licencing exams like NERB/WREB/CODA /ADEX which one can be eligible only after part of dental education here as international dentists. I am unaware of the exact situation in Canada though.
Dr Dev, the dental mastery app has a lot of questions and I think some mock tests as well. You may also use some of the earlier national board released exams as mock tests to get you started with MCQs
Nope not compulsory to do only DDS after. It's a requirement for dental courses for international dentists. You can do any other course you would like (even non dental) provided you have the prerequisites for that course.
can you suggest me...wil it be good to move to US after 10 years of practice in india....starting from scratch to get in to dds school and settle their ....am 37 now....your advise....
10 yrs is a lot of time in practice. You would have taken a lot of CE courses to improve your dentistry already. If your practice is doing great then why go through the whole process of move? A move to a different country is hard especially with children and family. It's something to think about! Considering immigration situation for kids born outside USA can be hard as well. Please rethink your decisions. I think this video might help you in deciding with all the criteria discussed. If you answer yes for all then and only then move after a lot of thought. ruclips.net/video/mjEzjBGJJa8/видео.html
