I really want to be an Orthodontist, and i know it will take a lot of school.. like a lot math and science right?
But, in the end it will all be worth it right? worth it for the salary, and not to mention doing something you enjoy.
Do Orthodontists have a higher yearly salary than Dentists? If so, how much averagely in a year?
Median income of an orthodontist is $145,600
Median income for a dentist is $129,920
An orthodontist attends four years of college, four years of dental school, and 2-3 years residency. Classes include Biology, Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics
A dentist generally has to receive at least 2 years of pre-dental college, but most have their Bachelor's degree. From there they pursue 4 years of dental school. The classes necessary are very similar to the requirements of an orthodontist.
I have to say, when I went in for my braces I was amazed by all of the geometry, when I viewed the diagram, I was really in awe of all of the work that goes in.
Ultimately, there aren't that many differences in the salary, there is more work involved in becoming an orthodontist, but regardless, in either job you will be giving people healthy and beautiful smiles. Definitely an admirable profession.
Reply:Yes. Probably because they have more schooling
Reply:Right now it sounds like a high paying job is what intrigues you. Before becoming an orthodontist you have to attend college and then dental school. While going through that process you may realize that ortho. is not for you. Enjoy what you do now and strive for success and who knows you maybe an orthodontist someday, hopefully for the right reasons...to help people.
