Any foreign dentist working in Turkey?

Thorffin

I'm an Iraqi dentist and live in Turkey . I know that dentists from aboard can't work in Turkey but I was wondering if taking the exam here in Turkey that is called DUS might allow us to work ?
I have heard that even taking the exam is limited to only people from turkish origin .
