The BDS is a 5 year (4 years academic education + 1 year mandatory internship) UG degree programme. This course can be pursued through full time and part time courses. The BDS is one of the most sought courses after 12th in medical field. There are many reputed universities in India which are offering the BDS course.

Hi,
In my opinion B.Pharma has a better scope.

BDS has not a good scope in foreign countries as a specializations is must to open your clinic. Its better for you to first complete your MS so that some more opportunities you can gain. "Aesthetic Dentistry" is the newer advancement in the field of dentistry.

30,000 per month. After getting the experience and good hands on in this field, the candidate may get the handsome salary as 4 to 6 Lacs per annum.

Here are some of the Diploma after BDS which are being offered. Fellowship in Aesthetic Dentistry. Post-Graduate Certificate in Oral Implantlogy (PGCOI)
Post-Graduate Certificate in Endodontics (PGCE)
Fellowship in Cosmetic Dentistry.

MPH India and abroad. DDS - requires time, money and hard work. Health informatics abroad. MBA India and abroad. Diploma courses for 2 years. M.Sc. Or Ph.D. abroad.

In BDS you will have more chances of income as compared to BPT but you will have to open a clinic for that. In BPT you need not open a clinic of yours but get associated with several hospitals or health centers or even with sports teams. Both career options are good.

Total registered dentists in India is 2,53,339. Assuming 2,20,000 active dentists in India, we have currently 8,068 shortage of dentists in India. Hence, BDS may not be jobless by the time you're reading this answer and agreeing with my freaking assumptions.

The internship is compulsory and BDS Degree shall be granted after completion of one year paid Internship and passing of BDS examination.
