CODA predoctoral (DDS/DMD) program status in the CODA program search on 2026-10-14: Approval without Reporting Requirements.

Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston runs a DMD program, a dental international student program leading to the DMD for foreign-trained dentists, and postgraduate specialty and research programs.

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

Advanced Standing

Postgraduate Specialties

Research Degrees

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.

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 Tufts University School of Dental Medicine, confirm current status with the accreditor or national authority named above. How recognition works.
