Doc. Nothing good comes easy ! Youve gotta pay your dues

In America, you go back to school, in UK you write your Licensure exams and in Canada yo can either go back to school or write Licensure exams. Its worth it at the end

Thanks your response, its very helpful. I'm just wondering how those guys did theirs. Medicine seems straight forward. Cost of dental licencing exam is huge. Uk costs over 4k pounds. Usa requires you schooling for 2 years. Tuition over 100k usd. Canada which ever pathway costs exam fee and/or tuition still costly. With my meagre salary it's looking like a tall order

oh okay! Try getting into a residency program in Nigeria to save money. Pass IELTS with high scores and try your shot at Canada express entry program. Your BDS is an upper hand plus you should be done with HJ and NYSC. Thats 2 years work experience already.

True but again don’t put all your eggs in one basket in this country at least now that you’ve decided to relocate. Try residency and Dental Officers(HMB) Job positions, your aim now is to raise funds.
Try IELTS. If you pass IELTS well and you get good scores and Canada invites you to apply for the EXPress entry program, Money will definitely come out.
Your best option now will be Canada express entry, from there you can now think of either remaining in Canada or go to the US.
I would have said use Student route but judging by your post, finance seems to be an issue
