Dental Internships Abroad In Jamaica

Are you a dental student, dental professional or a certified dentist seeking dental internships abroad? If so, then our internships in Jamaica are perfect for you! This is your chance to work with Jamaican dental professionals to help hone your skills while gaining much-needed work experience.

Here at Jamaica International Projects, we have partnered with a number of dental clinics and private practices where our interns will help provide oral health services and help educate locals about good oral hygiene. You will also be paired with a local dental care team, and learn by observing the dentist and other members of staff.

The opportunities are numerous, such as assisting in administration duties, performing check-ups for gum disease, cavities, and other oral diseases, check fillings, visiting schools and educating locals about proper oral hygiene and more.

More experienced interns will also be able to perform more complex procedures, such as root canals, whitening, teeth cleaning, applying braces, filling cavities, etc. The opportunities for learning and expanding your skills while boosting your CV as a dental intern abroad are endless.

Also, on weekends and after work you can join in on fun adventures and culturally immersive activities to truly immerse in the Jamaican culture, ensuring that you receive a true balance of work and play on your dental hygiene internships abroad in Jamaica.

On the first day of your business internships abroad project, we will give you a full orientation where we will cover work hours, transfer times, accommodation and project rules, the Jamaican lifestyle, extracurricular activities and more.

To ensure we offer the best international business internships, we include training to ensure that you are fully equipped to take on your duties and that you fit right into your work environment.

Daily cultural lessons are included in our international business major internships. These are 30-minute sessions where we teach you about various aspects of Jamaican culture, such as traditions, norms, religion, food, history, government and more.

You will also receive lessons on how to speak, write and understand Patois (pronounced Pat-Wah), which is our local dialect.

During weekdays after you return to your accommodation and have had dinner, we will offer you a mentorship/reflection session with your Project Advisor, so you can discuss the day’s activities, ask us any questions, explain the problems you faced and expound upon your plans for the following days. This will typically last about 30 minutes.

We pick you up at the airport and transfer you to your accommodation. The airport you should fly into is the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston (KIN). We will meet you at the airport with a sign saying “Jamaica International Projects”. You will be transferred directly from the airport to your accommodation.

Each day, you will be transferred from your accommodation directly to your international business internships work site by a team member. We will also pick you up at the agreed upon time and transfer you either back to the accommodation, to change money/purchase supplies or to a cultural immersion activity/excursion, depending upon your itinerary.

For your tours, you will have a Project Advisor accompanying you to point out important landmarks and to function as a guide. You will be transferred to and from all excursions and outings.
