Burnaby Dental Schools & Programs

Students might start by investigating the programs offered by Vancouver Community College. Not only does the college offer students an opportunity to become a certified dental assistant, dental hygienist or a dental reception coordinator, the faculty works with students to find ways to advance their credentials. A good example is their program to advance certified dental assistants towards becoming dental hygienists (Dental Hygiene Access for CDAs). Future dental hygienists can consider the program available at the Vancouver College of Dental Hygiene for an accelerated program of just 18 months. For dental students working towards post-doctoral certification, the University of British Columbia, Faculty of Dentistry is known for the depth of its overall program.

Why Burnaby is a Great Place to Study Dental
Dentistry students that want to attend a good dental school in southwestern Canada may already know that the Burnaby area is about as southwest as you can get. There are great dental schools in the area, but the question of where to live remains. If Vancouver is the academic answer, Burnaby could be the residential answer. Just east of Vancouver, public transportation in Burnaby makes the commute to the dental school of your choice much more cost- and time-efficient than driving. While taking dentistry classes and after graduation, those whose wish to remain in lower British Columbia will have the support of the Vancouver District Dental Society, an organization focused on helping you succeed in your new dental career.
