    • @DrViolette
      @DrViolette  Před 3 lety +3

      BDS is 5 years. A postgraduate masters degree (ortho, prostho, etc.) is 4 years. You’ll need at least 2 years of working experience as a requirement for masters. Therefore in total, at least 11 years. And that’s already considered fast. Usually it takes longer than that... 💨
