Starting Your Career

As you begin your life after school, you have many choices in front of you. Do you go into a corporate or group office? Find an associateship with a private doctor or go straight into your own private practice? The choice is very personal yet extremely important.

Whether you prefer to practice first as an associate, eventually want to operate in a partnership or multi-doctor office, or would prefer to own your own solo office, an important consideration is how much you income you will need to earn. This factor is important in narrowing down potential opportunities and must take into account the cost of living in that area, any student loan payments and personal lifestyle.

While the first question at hand may actually be where you want to live, then how much you would like to make, additional important considerations include the type of dentistry to you want to practice, any personal practice philosophy and immediate, five, ten year goals and beyond.
