My practice environment supports learning and professional integration

Acknowledgement

The initial placement is intended to be short term (2- to 4-weeks). Following the placement, if both the Supervising Dentist and Dental Intern are interested in continuing their working relationship, they may notify the CDSA and apply to extend the restricted practice permit for up to one (1) year. An approved extension allows the Dental Intern to continue gaining supervised experience and it affords the dental practice an additional team member to provide patient care.
