A '''dental school''' ('''school of dental medicine''', '''school of dentistry''', '''dental college''') is a [[tertiary education]]al institution—or part of such an institution—that teaches [[dental medicine]] to prospective [[dentist]]s and potentially other [[dental auxiliary|dental auxiliaries]]. Dental school graduates receive a degree in Dentistry, Dental Surgery, or Dental Medicine, which, depending upon the jurisdiction, might be a [[bachelor's degree]], [[master's degree]], a [[First professional degree|professional degree]], or a [[doctorate]]. Schools can also offer [[postgraduate training in general dentistry]], and/or training in [[endodontics]], [[oral and maxillofacial surgery]], [[oral pathology]], [[oral and maxillofacial radiology]], [[orthodontics]], [[pedodontics]], [[periodontics]], [[prosthodontics]], [[dental public health]], restorative dentistry, as well as postgraduate training for dental hygienists and dental technicians.<br />
<br />
Other oral health professionals including [[dental hygienist]]s, [[dental technician]]s and [[denturist]]s, [[dental therapist]]s and oral health therapists, [[Dental assistant]]s or [[Registered Dental Nurse|dental nurse]]s, and other members of the [[dental auxiliary]] including orthodontic auxiliaries may be trained at dental schools, or at universities of applied science or polytechnics.<br />
<br />
Sometimes [[dental education]] is done within [[medical school]]s, as in [[Pakistan Medical and Dental Council|Pakistan]]; the separation between medical and dental educations is also blurred within certain sub-specialties, such as [[oral and maxillofacial surgery]].<br />
