For a Dentist's title, what is the difference between a DDS and a DMD?

So what's the difference and which one would be better to go to?

For a Dentist's title, what is the difference between a DDS and a DMD?
No difference at all. It just depends on where they graduated from. They are qualified to do the same thing and no one is better than the other!
Reply:one is general studies another one is masters (specializing) I guess.
Reply:Hi! Nothing. It is simple the title of the degree. If a dental school is an entity in it's own, it tends to use the DDS. My school was combined with the Medical college so the first 2 years we all had similiar classes the degree is DMD to keep the flavor of Medical and Dental college. The training is about the same and the State exams are pretty much identical. What makes one dentist better than another is continuing education, talent, love for the professions and caring about their patients. The title is really irrelevant. M
