The INBDE Two-Day Marathon

Most candidates prepare for content. Almost nobody prepares for what it feels like to come back on Day 2.

Why Most Candidates Struggle

Content gets you to the starting line. Endurance gets you across the finish.

The Problems

1

Learning in Isolation

When you don't understand a concept, there's no one to ask at 11pm. Traditional prep is text-heavy, but clinical reasoning is visual—you need to see it to understand it.

2

The Day 2 Gut Punch

After 8 hours and 360 questions, you walk out depleted—and have to come back tomorrow. Most candidates prepare for content, not for the psychological toll of Day 2.

3

Nobody Trains for Endurance

12+ hours of testing. Research shows performance drops by 0.9% per hour—but a 20-minute break can recover it. If you haven't practiced long sessions, you won't pace correctly.

4

Day 2 is ALL Case-Based

140 questions requiring sustained reading, clinical synthesis, and reasoning—when you're already depleted. If you show up exhausted, those cases will feel twice as hard.

For International Dentists

Your Path to U.S. Licensure

The INBDE is your gateway to advanced standing programs at U.S. dental schools. While the pass rate for internationally trained dentists is lower than for domestic students, comprehensive preparation levels the playing field.

Accepted by All U.S. States

All U.S. licensing jurisdictions accept the INBDE

Year-Round Testing

Available at Prometric centers across the U.S. and Canada

No Attempt Limit

Unlike the NDEB AFK (3 attempts max), you can retake the INBDE

Important Note

The INBDE is for U.S. licensure only. If you want to practice in Canada, you need the NDEB Equivalency Process (AFK, ACJ, NDECC, Virtual OSCE). The INBDE does not count toward Canadian licensure.

Biostatistics
Question 1 of 3

A university dental clinic evaluated a fluorescence screening device for OSCC on 200 high-risk patients. A 15-year longitudinal follow-up tracked patient outcomes.

Selection bias
