what does DMD and DMS mean on a dentist's title?



Answers:
I don't know what DMS stands for. I know MSD is Master of Science in Dentistry. DMD stands for doctor of dental medicine. DDS stands for doctor of dental surgery. Some dentists have DMD degrees and others have DDS degrees depending from which dental school they graduated. The education curriculum required to attain either of these degrees is the same. Additionally, the American Dental Association and The Dental Practice Act agree that these dental degrees are identical and interchangeable. (for exmaple, Boston Dental gives out DMD degrees while NYU dental gives out DDS degrees)

The MSD is offered through the following disciplines: Endodontics, Oral Biology, Oral Pathology, Oral Medicine, Orthodontics, Pediatric Dentistry, Periodontics, and Prosthodontics.
