RE: Job Resignation
Sounds like a difficult situation in your country.
In the UK, there is a mix of NHS / government funded dentists and private practices.
Particularly in rural areas NHS dentists are now very difficult to find, so for many the choice is paid dentistry or no dentistry.
Generally there appears to be a big shortage of dentists in the UK.
I've heard that starting in January 2025, the registration fee for Part 1 of the Overseas Registration Exam for foreign dentists will be reduced from £1000 to approximately £500.
Additionally, due to a shortage of dentists in the UK, there might be an exemption from the licensing exam for a couple of years beginning in 2025. While there are already hundreds of thousands of doctors from Asia working in the NHS, there is now an increased demand for dentists.
