I have found this link for you which will answer your question:

But do take into consideration that you also have to master Danish and that your exam shall be assessed before you can practise in Denmark.

You can find some information about authorisation here:

Hello,
Sorry to bother, but as you alsmo might know it is so difficult to find someone who's also trying to move to denmark in this field. I am also a dentist, and trying to find out a bit more how our profession works this country. Did you eventually moved? Could you give me some insight about the working conditions in Denmark for a dentist? Thank you so much in advance

Normally, people are only active on this forum as long as they have questions to their sitation why I think you shalln't expect an answer to your question here.

As an EU resident your situation also differs from that of Dr. Quarratulain12.
Take a look at this page:
https://stps.dk/en/health-professionals … er-states/

This is a private recruiting agency:

Never say never, but I think it'll be very hard/impossible to find a position as long as you don't speak Danish even if this shouldn't be part of the official requirements.

Hello Nelly, thank you for replying :)
I know we are in different situations and since the topic wasn't recent perhaps no one would reply, but trying wouldn't hurt either ;)
O wrote because we are both expats (or trying to) and share the same profession and interest to practise in DK. More than the applying part (which is important also), i have questions about the state of the profession in DK for these same people (expats). Is there actually a demand of dental practicioners, is it easy to find a job if you speak danish, are we given good working conditions (i live in france were you have plenty of work opportunities, however the profession here degrading more and more, so it gets frustrating to work here), are the salaries good salaries, etc...
And i was trying to find this feedback before contacting any recruitment agency because i believe that the personal experience can give me a more accurate idea of what the working situation in the country is

Salaries are in the top ten. The reputy too.

Work conditions - as en employee you'll have to work 37 hours a week if on full time.

It's also expected that the country within a few years will be in lack of odontologists.

The big challenge for you and your partner will be the language which is a must.
