Specialty Certificate In Dental Anaesthesia

As of August 27, 2007, the legislation governing the practice of dentistry in Ontario recognized Dental Anaesthesia as a dental specialty in Ontario. With this legislation, the Ontario government has continued to place the responsibility for the registration of dental specialists in the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario.

While this material below is intended to assist applicants with completing their application forms, we encourage them to review Regulation 205/04 as amended by O. Reg. 500/07, the Registration Regulation, and in particular sections 18 and 19. The full regulation can be found on the College's website at www.rcdso.org/pdf/registra_licensing/Ont_Regs_Sept_2007.pdf.

Please note that applications to take the RCDSO Examination in Dental Anaesthesia will not be considered unless an application for a specialty certificate of registration has also been submitted.
