Dentist
The salaries I listed were posted in the average dentist salaries. I have no idea how old the information is. But I did double check and it's at the top for the fastest growing in annual salary increase and no unemployment
And I'm telling you its not accurate. As for fastest growing in annual salary unless a dentist is employed by a company/ state/federal government most of them working as associates make money on the amount of income they generate for the practice. In other words they make money as per the number of patients that they see
Either way again I have no idea what your point is other than its expensive to get dental work done
Dental school is on par with medical school as far as costs, unless you come from a ultra rich family you take out loans for the entire amount plus money to live on
The costs to set up a modest sized office, the equipment alone are in the hundreds of thousands when you add up all the costs.
Do the math, graduate college at 21, start school for your doctorate another 4 years than a residency, now go and look to go to work. Find a practice looking for another dentist
If you graduate next year your half a million in debt, once your done and working you have to pay back that loan plus you have to live somewhere and pay bills like everyone else. If everything falls in place your 40 before you see light of day.
The problem is as I see it is the lack of insurance coverage that covers dental costs. The insurance companies are unwilling to offer any type of dental coverage as they know because of just a few factors I listed, the fee's that dentist have to charge to stay in the black are higher than say a trip to a internist
And than of course just like medical doctors there is required continuing education which is mandatory, its not for free either, you could add pro bono work into that as some dentists will do that for people.
Your working in peoples mouth with sharp instruments, think of HIV. Speaking of that ask any dentist who did a residency or when seeing patients in the last year of dental school about some of the people that had to work on.
Drug addicted/ HIV positive.....Thanks but no thanks I'll stick to welding
