At the Dental Simulation Training Centre (DSTC), we proudly stand as one of the leading institutes dedicated to advancing dental education and professional growth for internationally educated dentists. Since 2006, DSTC has been a trusted name in dental simulation training, empowering aspiring dentists from around the world to achieve licensure and success in Canada and the United States.
With nearly two decades of experience, our mission is simple yet powerful — to bridge the gap between international dental education and North American practice standards through innovative simulation technology, expert-led instruction, and personalized mentorship.
🌍 Our Global Reach
DSTC’s impact extends far beyond borders. We have trained and guided hundreds of internationally educated dentists from across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and beyond — helping them successfully transition into North American dental practice.
Our students bring a wealth of diverse experiences, cultures, and clinical backgrounds, creating a vibrant and collaborative learning environment. This global community is united by a shared goal — to achieve dental excellence and deliver world-class care through continuous learning.
🎓 A Proven Legacy of Excellence
Since our inception, DSTC has maintained a reputation for academic integrity, innovation, and results. Over the years, we have refined our dental equivalency training programs to meet evolving licensing standards and real-world clinical demands.
Our students consistently achieve exceptional results in NDEB assessments and licensing exams, reflecting our deep commitment to quality education. At DSTC, success isn’t just measured by passing exams — it’s about building confidence, competence, and career readiness.
🧠 Comprehensive Dental Equivalency Training
DSTC’s specialized training programs are designed to help internationally trained dentists prepare effectively for the National Dental Examining Board of Canada (NDEB) exams and beyond.
Our comprehensive simulation-based courses include:
- AFK® (Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge) – Focused theoretical and conceptual mastery of dental sciences.
- ACJ® (Assessment of Clinical Judgment) – Hands-on training for clinical decision-making and treatment planning.
- NDECC® Clinical Simulation – Realistic, performance-based sessions replicating North American clinical scenarios.
We also offer guidance for INBDE® and ADAT® preparation for those pursuing U.S. licensure and specialization.
Each program is structured around evidence-based teaching, real-time feedback, and advanced simulation tools — ensuring that you gain both technical skills and the confidence to apply them in practice.
🦷 Excellence Through Innovation and Simulation
What makes DSTC unique is our strong focus on simulation-based learning. We believe that true confidence comes from practice — and our advanced simulation technology allows dentists to experience real-world procedures before stepping into clinical settings.
From precision hand skills to patient management and time-bound assessments, every session is designed to simulate the intensity and expectations of actual dental practice in North America.
This method not only builds technical excellence but also helps candidates adapt seamlessly to the Canadian and U.S. dental environment.
👩🏫 Expert Faculty and Personalized Mentorship
Our instructors are licensed North American dentists and internationally trained professionals who have successfully navigated the equivalency process themselves. They bring first-hand experience, mentorship, and insider knowledge to help students overcome challenges at every stage.
At DSTC, learning is personalized — we believe every dentist’s journey is unique. Through small class sizes, one-on-one mentoring, and consistent feedback, our team ensures you receive the attention and guidance needed to achieve your professional goals.
