International Residency Training Programs

The UCLA School of Dentistry's Residency Training Programs are among the best in the nation and range in duration from one to three years long. The program results in a postgraduate certificate. International trainees must pay fees to participate and must comply with our requirements.

We invite you to explore our seven (7) CODA-accredited residency programs for graduates of a non-CODA accredited dental school.

Our international trainees that are enrolled in our residency programs have the opportunity to enhance their education and pursue advanced training in a wide range of specialized fields as well as general dentistry. At any given time, we have more than 100 active trainees who are treating patients in the clinics alongside our world-class faculty.

If you are looking for something that has a shorter time commitment, we offer two additional postgraduate training options for U.S. dentists and dentists who have graduated from a non-CODA accredited dental school the same caliber of training.

We invite you to explore our additional offerings.
