Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I shadow?
Shadowing is an important part of every pre-dental student's journey toward dentistry. Apart from giving you an opportunity to see what dentistry is all about close-up, it is also highly valued by dental schools (in fact, some dental schools in the US actually require at least 100 shadowing hours before applying). We understand that finding dentists to shadow can sometimes be difficult which is why we wanted to provide students with an unique opportunity to earn over 15 shadowing hours through our custom-designed modules on orthodontics, endodontics, oral surgery, and many more!
Does the FutureDMD Dental Shadowing preparation program count towards shadowing hours? How are they verified?
In general, Yes, all hours (15 hours total) completed for the Dental Shadowing Preparation Program will count towards verifiable shadowing hours on your dental school application although you should always double-check with the dental schools you are applying to for confirmation. There are verification quizzes at the end of each shadowing module which will serve as proof of attendance. If you would like to include these hours on your application, please use the following contact information:
