The Department of Oral Health Sciences of Ghent University teaches a 3-year bachelor and 2-year master in dentistry (entrance examination organised by the government), a specialist master with four tracks, and a one-year postgraduate general dentist program.

Dental programs

Programs are grouped by track and never mixed: initial dental qualifications, advanced standing for applicants who already hold a dental qualification, postgraduate programs and research degrees. The exact official wording is shown.

Initial Dental Qualifications

Postgraduate Specialties

A postgraduate certificate or master's listed here is not an initial dental degree and does not by itself satisfy initial-degree licensing.

Teaching languages

Classroom, clinical and patient-interaction languages can differ. We record a language only when an official source states it.
Teaching language not verified. An English-language website does not establish English teaching.

Accepting international applicants is not the same as teaching in English. Admission requirements by program are on each program page.

Recognition and accreditation

National authorization, institutional accreditation, program accreditation and directory listings are separate records with their own authority, status, scope and date.

National authorization or recognition

Permission from the national education or health authority to run the program or award the degree.

Not verified yet

Institutional accreditation

Accreditation of the university or institution as a whole.

Not verified yet

Dental-program accreditation

Accreditation of the dental degree program by a dental-education accreditor. Scope (program, campus, award) matters.

Not verified yet

Directory listing

An entry in a directory such as WDDS. A listing is not accreditation or endorsement.

No directory reference recorded

DentalSchools.app does not accredit or approve schools and is not affiliated with WDDS, KIDEE, CODA, the ADA or any regulator. A directory listing is not accreditation, and a pending application is not accreditation. A missing record means we have not verified it, not that it does not exist. For Ghent University - Dentistry (Tandheelkunde), confirm current status with the accreditor or national authority named above. How recognition works.
