DENTAL SCHOOL DEBT // How to earn more as a new dental grad
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2024
- With the cost of dental school being so high, dental students are graduating with a huge amount of debt. So when you graduate, you want to start earning. In this video, I talk about my experience moving to a small remote community right after graduating from dental school, and how I earned more and learned more as a dentist in my first year of practice. Hopefully this gives you some ideas of what's out there if you want to increase your income as a new dental grad.

This was an amazing and really informative video. Also you saved my ass on the PAT and Reading Comp.
🙌
Got 25’s on Reading Comp and PAT Bc of you!!
I'd also add, if your goal is to optimize for income, working in rural USA is even more lucrative.
The US dollar alone is worth ~30-40% more than the CAD and income tax is significantly lower (not to mention the cost of living). If you practice in a state with zero (state) income tax it makes a substantial difference.
Ex. $300,000 CAD (in Ontario) after tax is ~174,000 CAD but that same $300,000 income in the state of Florida is more like ~230,000 (USD) which then converts to $316,000 CAD. You essentially double your income working in the US vs Canada when factoring for currency and taxes.
Not only that but it's actually easier (on average) to produce more as a dentist in the US than it is in Canada. Attribute this to fewer dentists per capita and a greater emphasis on dental healthcare by the general public, this is what I've seen in the data and anecdotally.
I'm going to be starting dental school this fall and have been pretty anxious looking at the loans I'll have to stomach. This is definitely something I could consider. Thanks Joel!
Hey Joel, really appreciate your videos (and your work with boot camp)! You said in this video you were able to negotiate for 50% of your production. Having only talked to dentist in the US that make closer to 30-35%, could you perhaps talk about the differences in percent production between the US and Canada? and if looking for a remote area here in the US could still get me closer to 40+% production?
I think 🤔 younger dentist's are more honest...😊 More transparency in the process...😊
YaY! thank you Joel again for amazing content!
Thanks
It sounds like you were a super GP right after graduation! Can you please share how you prepared for this in dental school?
maybe a good idea for a future video 🤔
Thunder Bay represent!
yesss Mohamed!
Absolutely love your channel, Just found your channel today and have already watched 7 of your videos! How did you go about finding a practice in remote area?
classified ad, and ty!
@@jmeywhat’s Ty?
Did you need to take different boards because you wanted to practice somewhere rural?
How do you find jobs in small towns like , is there a website or is through connections???? Also how do you find dentist jobs in general???
Hi can you please make a video for the scope of internationally trained dentists in Canada
Did you do the NHSC Loan Repayment?
Did you have the option of doing a residency as well?
Can US dental student grads work in Canada. Or is there extra hoops you have to go through. I love the videos by the way man you’re a God sent!
you have to write the Canadian boards but the degrees are equivalent and Can US have a reciprocal agreement. and thank you!!
@@dzikijohnny do u know where i could find these opportunities I would love to find somewhere I can have a similar situation.
Joel, thanks for sharing your experience. Could you please let us know how you found your opportunity in a remote area? In my fourth year now and I’m willing to move anywhere in the USA to find a great opportunity. Thank you!
I found mine on a dental job board. check out boards, talk to people, call dental albs in places you want to work and ask who's hiring
very nice video! any tips on passing the board exam? thanks man
doing released old exams! I like the Mental Dental Videos by Dr. Ryan too for review
Hi Joel, which dental implant course did you do? Do you have any recommendation for new grads? Thanks!
I took Hands On Training. I'd give it 5/10, didn't think it was great
Hi Joel! What is the best way to search for job opportunities like this? I'm graduating dental school in a year and want to work in a rural area. It's encouraging to hear your experience was so positive.
The best jobs (I've found) come through word of mouth! Clinical demos who know someone, labs, supply reps, etc who know a dentist who is looking. Classifieds and cold outreach also sometimes can be fruitful (how most find jobs tbh)
Hi Joel! How long did you work in Wawa for before moving to Thunder Bay?
1 year
As a new grad working in that small town how many hours a week did you work roughly ?
that first year I was working around 35 hours per week
@@jmey thank you for taking the time to reply. I will continue to watch your videos and support the Channel
What implant course did you take?
I took a multi week hands on implant continuum
@@jmey what’s the name of the course?
What was your cost of living?
