DMD or DDS what title has the best education as far as dentistry?

A DMD is the same kind of dentist as a DDS. The "DMD" is just thought of as a more "modern" degree by some schools and more reflective of the amount of medicine that is incorporated into the modern curriculum in dental schools. My dad graudated from the same school as I did. He was a DDS and I am a DMD. I know of one school that actually let the graduating students CHOOSE which degree they had put on their diploma for a few years while they were making the transition from DDS to DMD.

It only distinguishes a general dentist from one who performs surgery.
