i want to apply for jan 2013 intake...
course options available with me now are as following-
1. dental assisting ( one year course, certificate/diploma)( only algonquine college has this course for jan intake.. which is in ottawa... dont wana go there)

I think you'll be refused. Why are you taking a dental assistance or medical office administrator course when you are already a dentist? This won't make sense to CIC. It looks like you are just taking these courses as a way of getting into Canada.

then which course is good for me?

Masters in Dentistry.

there is nothing called masters in dentistry in canada... they have only one degree that is DDS... if anyone wants to specialised in any department then they can pursue masters after having DDS degree... and I am B.D.S.... its not valid in canada. we have to go through some 5 exams and can pursue DDS... so basically I am going to give those exams... and i dont want to go through visiting visa because all exams can take upto 2 to 3 years and each exam has 4 to 5 months interval....

r there any courses that require BDS as a pre requisite the u can try those PG diploma etc courses. if ur bachelors then u should plan for a higher level studies than bachelors to make ur case stronger.
