What You'll Do: The job entails: examining patients' teeth and gums visually and using x-rays to determine the problem, designing individual treatment plans to outline the steps of the entire process, cleaning teeth using various whitening methods, fixing bite issues by aligning teeth, filling cavities, administering anesthetics for dental surgery, surgically removing and replacing decaying teeth, repairing and rebuilding fractured teeth, building molds of patients' teeth for the creation of dentures and other dental gear, prescribing antibiotics and other medications to prevent infection and control pain, attending special events to educate the public and promote dental health, maintaining patient records, and more.

You'll spend most of your workday meeting with patients in a clean, well-lit dental office. Your work schedule is generally fixed and lasts 40 or more hours per week, but you could be doing part-time due to personal preference or availability. Weekend work is sometimes needed to get the job done, but this is more often the exception than the rule.

Education and Training: In the United States, dentists are required to complete dental school and become licensed before they are allowed to practice. Admission to dental school generally involves getting good grades during the first three years of undergraduate study and passing the DAT exam. Most prospective dental students major in a natural science such as biology or chemistry and take courses like human anatomy and mathematics. Dental school usually lasts three to four years and culminates in a period of supervised clinical experience.

Specializing in one of nine major sub-fields requires an additional one to two years in residency. If you are planning on going into teaching or dental research, you will undergo another two to five years of advanced training instead.

State licensure is also mandatory and requires passing a written and skills-test exam.

The Future: The general or family dentistry profession is expected to grow at about 21% through 2020.

The Pay: Annual salaries for Dentist in the U.S. range from $71,200 to $166,400, with the average median annual wage hitting $145,200 in 2012 as per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
