UPDATE: Explore American Immigration Council’ interactive map to get more comprehensive information on U.S. immigration data and its impact!
The American Immigration Council (AIC) has released all fifty states and the District of Columbia, for a total of fifty-one updated state-by-state fact sheets highlighting immigration data and facts. These fact sheets highlight the demographic and economic impact of Immigrants in each state.
With national immigration policy being discussed, we thought that it would be a good time to provide some statistics on the Immigrant population in the United States as provided by this AIC research. Once a week we will be posting a blog with information on three states at a time. This week we will highlight; Alabama, Alaska and Arizona!

1. I am a foreign Dentist having graduated with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery degree, having 9 years of experience serving patients, what are my chances of practicing in the United States? If you are a foreign educated dentist and wish to practice in the United States, you will need to be accepted and enroll in a dental education program accredited by the American Dental Association Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA). You can obtain a Doctor of Dental Surgery or a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree by attending an advanced standing program in the U.S. You will also need to pass the Integrated National Board Dental Examination (INBDE), a standardized written exam. Once you earn your D.D.S or D.M.D, you will then be able to seek work in the U.S. through Optional Practical Training (OPT) for 12 months. If you desire to work in the United States beyond those 12 months, you will need to research other nonimmigrant visa options such as the H-1B nonimmigrant visa worker program.
2. What are the requirements to practice in the United States? Most states require the attainment of a Doctor of Dental Surgery or a Doctor of Dental Medicine degree, passing the INBDE, and a State License in order to practice in the field of Dentistry.
