Select your pathway, then create its distinct Dental Passport.
Twelve of the most sought-after programs. Then open all 47.
Every profile carries the numbers the program itself publishes to ADEA CAAPID — exact program length, class size, application open date, deadline, start date, bench test, required exams, transcript evaluators and letter instructions — with the date that data was last updated and a direct link so you can verify every line yourself.

What GoDenta is, how the test-center simulations and program profiles work, and why applicants use it instead of guessing.
Loading…
The U.S. dental license process is fragmented, expensive, and opaque.
Applicants juggle credential evaluations, exam requirements, English proficiency thresholds, bench tests, letters of evaluation, visa restrictions, and deadlines that vary by program.
Most rely on expensive consultants or contradictory forum posts. GoDenta consolidates every requirement, every tool and every resource in one place, at a fraction of the cost.

Frequently asked questions
What exactly is a "Dental Passport"?
It is our name for your application record: one form holding your degree, exams, experience, documents, budget and goals. You fill it in once and every tool on GoDenta reads from it, so nothing asks you the same question twice. It stays private to your account — it is never submitted to any school on your behalf.
Which dental pathways does GoDenta cover?
Three tracks: traditional U.S. DDS/DMD through AADSAS, Advanced Standing IDP through CAAPID, and postgraduate residency programs through ADEA PASS.
How current is the program database?
Every one of the 47 profiles carries the date its official source page was last updated, a verify link, and a verified-sources panel listing exactly which fields came from where. Administrators log each re-check, and each profile shows how many days ago it was confirmed.
Can I use the free plan indefinitely?
Yes. The Explorer plan is free forever and includes every program profile, the deadline calendar, the odds estimator, the visa and status guide and a practice exam block.
Do I need to be an international dentist to use GoDenta?
No. GoDenta works for anyone applying to dental education in the United States — pre-dental applicants heading into a four-year DDS/DMD program, internationally trained dentists pursuing Advanced Standing, and graduates applying to postgraduate residencies. You choose your pathway and the platform adapts every checklist, deadline and practice module to it.
