Dental Council of India Registration: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how to obtain legal authorization to practice dentistry and maintain your professional registration in India.

This registration provides the legal authorization required to practice dentistry within India.

Who it's for

This is for all qualified dental graduates, including those with BDS or MDS degrees, who intend to practice dentistry in India.

What you get

Once registered, you receive the official legal permission required to work as a dental professional in the country.

What it costs you

You will need to pay an annual renewal fee to keep your registration active. Additionally, you must provide proof that you have completed the necessary continuing dental education credits to maintain your professional standing.

The catch to know

Your right to practice is not permanent without maintenance; if you fail to renew your registration every year, you may face a suspension of your right to practice dentistry.

How to apply

  1. Verify that you hold the required dental qualifications.
  2. Gather your academic proofs and necessary identification.
  3. Submit your application through the official regulatory body.
  4. Ensure you follow up with annual renewals and education credits.
