Yes they can limit. I sympathize though, that’s really annoying and penalizes people who want to get as much experience as possible. Go talk to your group leader and voice your concerns.

Unfortunately you probably won't have much success with changing the administration's thought process with this. Once you meet your requirements, I'd recommend shadowing specialists just to learn new or refine current techniques.

I always learned a ton when shadowing, especially with OS and Perio. The more you know about specialty procedures, the more comfortable you will be doing them as a GP.

Bro, chill. This is dental school. You get the degree and get out.

To follow your analogy... This isn’t socialism, this is prison politics. Serve your sentence, stay out of trouble, then do what you want with life. Nothing good happens to inmates who think they’re better than everyone. Don’t cause a ruckus and burn bridges so you can do 6 endos instead of 2. Think big picture.

To concretely answer your question: Schools can do whatever they want. You’re not a doctor. You’re a student with a checkbook.

Edit: I wish my dental school was like yours, and I think most people would agree.

I agree with this, but the number of exams per student and time in clinic should be standardized.
