it seems like you are really set on an education on dentistry. It's cool how the highest paid is the orthodontist himself.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like all of them have pretty similar skill/ personality types. It's interesting that Georgia has the highest salary for all three, I wonder why that is. Lots of schooling for an Orthodontist, but definitely worth it! Good luck!
