Foreign trained dentist via EE. Cannot understand some features of becoming a practising dentist in canada. Please, help me to figure it out

[belfalas]

Hello, to be honest I am in despair because it appears to be harder than I thought to build my immigrational template, primarly because of a tremendous amount of contradictory information on the internet, so I would love to ask for advice.

I am a general dentist (primarly therapist) who studied for 6 years. Last year, I have decided to immigrate to Canada via Express Entry having this: required money, assessment from WES as a dental specialist who studied for 6 years, and CRS score 481 so I can create my EE profile even today and start waiting for ITA.
Owing the fact, that I am hoping to become a dentist in canada, I started to do some research about this topic and realized that I can't understand all moments that i will face on my way to dentistry.
According to youtube and some articles I have learned that I have two options. PLEASE correct me if I am wrong.

1st option - land in Canada - pass three exams AFK ASJ ASC - then enter some residency for 2,5 years with a bank loan - I am a dentist.
2nd option - land in Canada - pass 5 extremelly hard exams - i am a dentist. Am I right? I am afraid that i have missed something.

To continue with, if i try to enter dental residency, how hard it would be to get a place for International Dentist Advanced Placement program? are there other programms or ways? are there any other options that i might missed while doing my research? how tough is competition between candidates for the place?

I want to say sorry for my atrocious level of english in advance.

Spots are competitive due to the large volume of internationally dentists moving to Canada. It may take you a few times to get accepted. There is an oversupply ofdentists in general in Canada especially in the larger cities. It is a difficult job market even for Canadian graduates. Canada doesn’t need anymore pharmacists, lawyers and dentists but they are given more points via CRS. Pharmacists especially have seen huge decreases in their salaries yet there has been no change in immigration policies.
