This is very new and strange to me. Back where I come from all dentists would have to finish 5 year medical studies with specialisation in dental surgery plus usual practice and therefore calling them doctor wasn't any different to calling any other bachelor of medicine a doctor.
What are we saying here, that dentists in UK don't have to go through medical studies and they just finish some sort of technical college, ie are glorified barbers? Don't get me wrong, this would certainly explain my battlefield hospital like experience with British dentistry over the last 20 years, but surely they must comply with at least EU standard for the title, no?
