I love teeth so much i work in the dental world too ! Teeth are like little plants you nourish 😁 think of them as living bones with nerves !

One simple basic visit cost a week of salary for a general labor worker

[@marcelkotowich2734]

The amount they charge for inflicting pain.

Day went to the orthodontist and I just got braces and I'm in shock what I just heard when you guys just talk you 1st like in shock

[@dimasprajoko]

Is it the same as specialist all start as gp then get more years of study to become specialist?

[@LanaMyslyvetsPlanners]

Only 4 years to become a dentist in the US? Weird.

[@orthodonticscalgary]

Dental school is 4 years :). You need to do an undergraduate degree before that, so 8 years total for most people. Orthodontists are 10-11 years.

Criminal fees,beware.

[@Ivan_So]

That being said a dentist still can do what a orthodontist does

[@Private-wj4nd]

Yet for some reason orthodontist can’t do general dentistry well. It’s all about experience.

Can I ask if teeth are a part of human body? No health care system considers teeth as a part of human body.😅

Theyre technically bone right?

One pulls teeth and one does not

So you spent an extra 2 years in school a whole shitload of extra money to do less things cuz that makes sense

[@drjennifersmith]

Yes! You hit the nail on the head. We do fewer things...but do them better...much like a dermatologist or cardiothoracic surgeon vs a family doc (if we're comparing to medicine).

[@robbieswrath1638]

Well a family doctor is a, "General practitioner". Not REALLY a doctor haha

You make it sound like you leave high school , with low to average marks, & go to dental school fir only 4 years. The dental school education is only granted to the students with the necessary high marks,& manual dexterity . There is a great competition to be admitted . It is actually a job full of surgery back to back to back, to fight the highest overhead of all the professions . . .To be screwed by the insurance companies, but they drive suspicions of Dentists charging too much . But insurance companies control payment, depending on the morals of the dentist not to mention the truth , of lackif payment . Nrither my brother nor I recommend it as a choice of professions, Eye surgery is a better choice . Or plumber, who has a miniscule overhead by comparison. I do electrical work now , after 41 years of wet finger dentistry . High drug ,divorce, & suicide, but the real issue is sitting in tension doing irreversible surgery on hard & soft tissues . So, pain from static posture is beyound what yoga or calisthenics can resolve . Hence the drug/ alcoholic addictions . The reporting of income includes the dental supplies held on the shelf, & accounts receivable , so a dentist won't have that quarter of a million dollars, it is sitting in somebidy else's hands not the dentist . So ,there really isn't the money there that you think from paying those high fees. Staff was also an early problem, still not nicely resolved as to receptionist, & hygienists availability. . . .

Orthodontist sounds boring

[@dreamgurl056]

Its not I had ortho treatment, to watch your teeth shift and move to a beautiful smile is a work of art 😍

[@nacholibre1962]

So, here's the thing . . . nobody cares! It's boooooooring!

[@ruthnoronha8206]

One is annoying and the other is even more annoying.
