re: dentists - the resurgence of wealthy

If you want to REALLY bank, you go to ortho residency.

The endo guys do well but they are getting more pressure from the GPs trying to keep more cases in house.

Prost is near dead as there aren't many residency spots and many programs are closing up shop.

Perio guys have train wreck cases and the Oral Surgeons have I think 4 more years after becoming GPs.

Dentistry is at the precipice of a major change with the proliferation of corporate dentistry. Single practitioners are going to face increased pressure so it's not all sunshine and lollipops in the field. There will be some big changes when the new CDC regulations are published with their expected release date of 2015.
