Class of 2020 grad here. I can say without a doubt this video was a great motivator/reminder that dentistry has the ability to make clinicians successful for a number of different reasons within and out of the profession.

I'm glad people are starting to realize this. Many people say "don't get into dentistry for the money" and that is true to an extent, but dentistry gives you an advantage over many other professions since dentists tend to earn more than a lot of other professions. Your average dentist will have more capital to invest in other businesses, stock/options, or whatever else it may be than your average business analyst/software engineer/etc.

This is very inspirational and thinking out of the box! Most people do what they learned to do in school which is to be an employee/dentist. I also aspire to use dentistry to help me make money so that I can use that money and make it work for me to create a passive income so that if I wanna vacation for long periods of time or just dont want to go to work anymore, I can have that option. I am graduating dental school in a few months and the goal for now is to own multiple practices. Will be hard to do competing with all the DSO’s we have now but I still think there is still a lot of opportunities with dentistry. You cant own a dental practice unless you have a dental license which definatly lowers the competition considerably.

He’s in Oklahoma! If you can live in such an unsaturated market then it’s relatively Very easy to start a practice and have patients. There’s even less competition for business ventures - less entrepreneurs with less money. Let’s not forget that many people can’t have the same life as him in Oklahoma. A person of color or someone who’s queer? Are they also supposed to risk their quality of life and personal safety

Very interesting video. I feel like currently there are less opportunities to get out on your own in a short period of time 1-2 years out of school nowadays. Those stories I hear are from graduates around 2015 and earlier. Potentially due to at their time less competition, less debt, lesser bank requirements. For example in my current area every time I set my sights on a potential area/demographic search that would be good for a start up, there’s already a DSO in the works. When I look for a practice to buy, they are being quickly bought out by small groups with none left for a solo practitioner to buy. Associate jobs are paying less and less so it’s harder to save up for a practice quickly enough.
