What is the difference between Pre-Dentistry and Dentistry?

Kaybay<3 asked:


I’m thinking about which college to attend. Some colleges say “Pre-dentistry” and some say “dentistry” is there a difference? Also what does the denstistry program cover; dentist, orthodontist, hygienist or all of the above?
So it would be better off in the future if I took dentistry instead of pre-dentistry?

    pre dentistry is a school for the less experienced student dentists. Dentristry is a school for more experienced dentists kind of like a graduate school. hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!

    Pre dentistry is taken in undergraduate school in college to obtain a BS or BA degree. This will take 4-5 years. Once you have that you can apply to dental school to get a DDS degree in 4 years.
