When I went to dental school my total out of pocket cost was $17, 000...and this included an apartment for 4 years. The tuition was 900 a year. It was a state school...but basically the same education as the private dental schools. When the hell did dental school tuition go to $750, 000...Jesus...that's crazy..

Did you realize NYU is notoriously expensive when choosing where to apply? There are many much less costly options that teach the same stuff. State schools even though non resident tuition is higher but by second year you become a state resident. After you graduate you can practice immediately without further training. DO / MD must continue in a residency 3-7 years (salary basically enough to live on)

I recently learnt that becoming a dentist is more expensive than most other medical doctorate degrees.
Dental schools have to invest and maintain their own dental facility. Other medical professions can outsource to local hospitals.

Wow, I was researching information about how to afford some much needed dental work. I didn't realize what dentists go through. That's very unfortunate. I'm self employed, so I can totally relate.

Bro ur quality of videos are increasing. Can u make more financial videos as a dentist please . Thanks

[tylerk]

FYI I believe the 130k is post taxes. I just graduated dental school last year and I don’t know a single dentist that only makes 130k. The lowest I have heard is 155k, personally I am an associate and make 230k a year (before taxes, after taxes it’s about 152k). My earnings as an associate are high though because I’m in a rural area with lots of demand

[mmmotives]

What am eye opener....much respect to you Doc!

[irap]

NYUCD...class of '72. I am speechless.

From my many hours of browsing reddit and SDN, I found that most dentists say that new grads can reasonably make anywhere from 130-180k depending on the location/practice. By year 3, most are making around 200k purely because they are faster/better. By year 5, earnings can be anywhere from 250-500k depending on if they bought a practice, CE, etc.

Im curious if you find these figures to be normal.

[pitpride]

So crazy that dentists get paid the same way that I do in pest control. Insane!

[arash_LA]

I’m not sure where you got your numbers, but it’s not true! Any dentist, even fresh after graduation, wouldn't work for 130k. I am a D4 and just signed my first contract for a 185k base salary plus benefits. The lowest in my class that I know is 165k, but she gets lots of additional benefits. I know many of my classmates who are making over 200k their first year out of school. 130k might be a part-time job.

Definitely vote for how to become a millionaire as a dentist! In dental school now

[saltydoctor]

These svideos are great. Fair and balanced. This refrain is not completely unique - in medicine there are many modes of employment that are similar to this but dentistry is the ultimate in "piecework:" Such a noble profession and it is sad that the burnout (oops Moral Injury) rate is so high. Despite the misgivings, taking care of lives is an immense privilege - and I am supporting, but not pushing, both of my children's choices to go to medical school. Good content overall!

Dentistry can be lucrative if you can get into your state school or secure a scholarship.

[cameronhetzler]

Yo we were classmates! I went to NYU from 2012 - 2016. (I was in Podell's clinic - 3ABA). Small world!

[sunieel]

Good job Doc !! Your experience is teaching us all !!

[theloniuspoon]

this is the most educational video ever, youre like exposing the dental industry lol

[robertweissman]

I thought you said the average dentist made $130K, and an associate dentist might make $200K. So, I guess the $130K number refers to a brand new dentist??

[prydegirl]

Many years over 800k, a few years over 1M.
