Degrees to Become a General Dentist. The Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) and the Doctor of Dental Medicine (DDM) degrees differ only in name. Both prepare you to practice as a general dentist. In these programs, you will study dental anatomy and nutrition.
This dentist diagnoses, treats, and manages your overall oral health care needs, including gum care, root canals, fillings, crowns, veneers, bridges, and preventive education. All practicing general dentists have earned either a DDS or DMD degree (doctor of dental surgery or doctor of dental medicine, respectively). There is no difference between the two degrees or the curriculum requirements that dentists must meet.
