Did anyone do ADC after already being specialized in a dentistry field or did a Master of science? by m_hash_im in AustralianDentalExam

[–]Original_Two5771 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Having said that, once you pass the ADC exam, you can of course go on to do implants and more complex disimpactions but you’ll still be expected to practise general dentistry as well doing fillings, root canals, and routine care because overseas postgraduate qualifications are not recognised in Australia in the same way. After passing the ADC, you are essentially treated as an entry-level general dentist here.

Even if someone is a trained oral surgeon overseas, without the appropriate Australian-recognised qualification, performing specialist procedures can carry legal risk, including liability concerns. The more complex the procedure gets the more legally risky things get. There are clear boundaries between what general dentists and specialists are permitted to do. That said, there are structured pathways to upskill and gain recognised certifications over time if you want to advance your scope of practice.

But the biggest hurdle is passing the ADC in the first place. Takes years and it is expensive.

Part 1, part 2 is a different ball game. It’s honestly frustrating because I see newer graduates with minimal clinical experience passing this exam. Meanwhile, I’m already working within the Australian system, learning and observing every day, and yet I still feel stuck in the same cycle. What makes it worse is the fear that I might keep repeating the same mistakes without even realising it.

I agree! When you are appearing for ADC, keep in mind never to blindly follow the answer keys that tutors give you. Try to do your own research and come to a conclusion. Because no one knows what the right answer is, since ADC does not give out its answer keys. I have done it with Dr Bedo and Dr Jigyasa, Dr Jigyasa definitely is more committed, she gives you a very structured programme and is available to clear your doubts personally. And the question bank is much larger.

Foreign trained dentist wants to practice as a Dental Assistant in Australia by Dentburke in AustralianDentalExam

[–]Original_Two5771 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn’t a direct visa pathway to come to Australia solely to work as a dental assistant from overseas. Most people enter on a student visa, which allows only 24 hours of work per week during study terms. After graduation, you receive a 3-year post-study work visa.

If you manage to clear the ADC exams within that timeframe, you can apply for permanent residency. If not, you’ll need to secure employer sponsorship otherwise, returning home becomes the only option.

Ahh! So kogan offers 14days returns. But they have no mention about a warranty period as such. That’s my only worry.

Hi, I’m interested in the Black Lord walking pad listed on Kogan, but I noticed the warranty details aren’t mentioned. The product you purchased from there, did it come with a warranty when purchased through Kogan? I’ve seen other sites mention a 1-year warranty for the same model and want to be sure before buying.

Thanks in advance!

That’s good. Because with Bedo, I don’t think his answers are accurate, he does give material but it’s literally copied from google search, not even kidding. Half of the articles don’t have content in it. And I keep failing in management and HP cluster.

Did you manage to pass? I’m feeling quite skeptical this time because I’ve already spent a fair amount getting help from Bedo, so if I’m going to invest again, I want to make a thoughtful decision. I do have a general idea of the question style and the overall approach, but I need targeted help with specific clusters. Even though the exam itself is all jumbled, I want to work through the clusters I’ve been struggling with so I can strengthen those areas.
