Well, there are always outliers. We know this board has some of the highest intelligence quotients in all of mankind, so Dentistry should be no exception to the rule of excellence.
The BLS says the median Dentist is pulling $150k, I believe them.

No doubt - I'd say $145K as a median is very accurate. I was referring to this:
I know it says "more than," but to me that gives the impression that the high end tends to fall in that range, which is very far from from the truth. And the median for specialists is likely in the low to mid-2s. With good hygienist production 2 or 3 days a week, a dentist can make 150K seeing only 4-5 patients a day (or half day, that is).
