“Dentist” is number one on U.S. News & World Report’s list of best occupations of 2015 for offering “a comfortable salary, low unemployment rate and agreeable work-life balance.” Dentists also top the publication’s list of best health care occupations.
“Dental hygienist” is number 5 on the top 100 list and number 4 on the health care list, which has “dental assistant” at number 67.
“Today’s students want it all. And dentistry really does deliver that. What other profession allows you to care for patients, make a good living, work as part of a team and have flexibility?” said Dr. Richard W. Valachovic, president and chief executive officer of the American Dental Education Association.
The U.S. News & World Report quoted Dr. Ada S. Cooper, an ADA consumer adviser, on the process of becoming a dentist and professional opportunities that “will find you – you won’t need to hunt them down.” It’s also a good idea to get involved in local and state dental associations for networking purposes, the report said.
