Assessing the economic return of specializing in orthodontics or oral and maxillofacial surgery
Article Abstract:
Dentists will most likely get a positive return on their educational investment if they specialize in orthodontics or oral and facial surgery. Surgeons should receive a greater return on their investment because they will break even sooner and make more money than orthodontists. This should encourage dental students to pursue specialty training.
