Not going to happen.
Even if these things were to happen - the process of caries development and dental decay would still occur in society. One of my classmates from Vancouver told me that Vancouver does not have fluoridated water (lmao). The result? When I was examining him a few weeks ago in the perio clinic at hospital, he had MANY fillings and dental procedures.
Also, afewconditions in dentistry, not necessarily associated with diet - wisdom teeth occlusion? Ondotogenic cysts? Periapical/periodontal disease? Malocclusion? Bruxism? Xerostomia? Sjrogen's Syndrome? Gingivitis? Temperomandibular joint disorders? Tooth sensitivity? Amelogenesis Imperfecta? Dens Invaginatus? Oral cancer (which doctors aren't trained to detect)? Pulpitis? Trigeminal neuralgia (AKA "suicide disease")? Chipped teeth (trauma)? Oral candidiasis? Fractured jaws? Protrusion of maxilla/mandible? Supernumerary teeth? Overbite/underbite/crossbite?
Don't kid yourself brah - dentistry will always be around... like nursing, physiotherapy, optometry etc.The first records of dentistry were from approx 14000 years ago lol.

If you don't brush your teeth regularly, bacteria can build up to form a clear sticky film (plaque). Brushing your teeth regularly helps to remove plaque and prevent it from forming. It's important to avoid plaque, since it can cause tooth decay (cavities) and gum disease.

This although interesting, is no revelation. A sugary diet, let alone a diet consisting of low to moderate carbohydrate intake, is associated with a higher caries rate.
Lmao @ your misinformation. Dental disease (consisting of FAR MORE than caries), has been around forever.
The only ones laughing are the dentists - all the way to the bank
Same level of prestige as a chiropractic quack, whose entire basis of disease is based on flawed pseudoscience ("subluxations" in the spine), and gross extrapolations in how "cracking the spine" can cure someone's flu? Yes, I've heard this absurd statement from a chiropractor.
U mad that you'll never get $200k within 2 years of graduating? It's time to stop crying yourself to sleep each night brah, and try fisting yourself instead.

Definitely its not for the riches but Military officers are sometimes worshipped here.
And I worked as bartender for more than 4 years, when I went somewhere and told them my job, they were like wow rly?, and began communicating with me, tho they did it for an easy access to the bar I worked
Edit: also sorry but there is nothing cool about being an accountant, and Im sure they had other plans in high school.
Every single accountant I met was a creep. I worked as one for a month few years ago and I think that was thr worst month of my life

Can you explain to me the oral microbiological process of how "natural foods" fight plaque "naturally"?
Ancient Egyptian texts refer to gum disease and dental procedures such as tooth extraction and fixation of the teeth and jaws with wires. The Etruscans used dental prosthetics such as gold crowns and false teeth.
Surgical treatment of dental abscesses was first raised by Hooton9 in 1917, following his visual and radiographic study of an ancient Egyptian mandible, dating to about 2,500 BC. The teeth of the mandible showed considerable wear, with the lower right first molar having a pulpal exposure and an associated apical infection. Hooton noted two small holes penetrating the outer cortical plate above the mental foramen and in the direction of the anterior root of this tooth. He claimed that due to the upward angulation of the holes, their artificial symmetrical appearance and the apparent thickness of bone they had transversed, the holes were the result of man-made drillings, affected in order to drain the pus from the apical abscess.
....
Of the so-called 'prosthetic appliances' that have been documented from ancient Egypt, the best known example consists of a mandibular second molar connected by gold wire to a worn third molar (Fig. 2). It was discovered at Giza, near Cairo in a burial shaft dating to approximately 2,500 BC and importantly not found attached to a skull. The dental report at the time stated that judging by the colour and anatomic form of the teeth they belonged to the same individual. Additionally, as the roots of the third molar were very absorbed, due to a probable inflammatory process, the tooth had become mobile, and so in an attempt to stabilise it, it had been attached to its neighbouring tooth.

Lol at this dentist argument. Reminds me of Stu from Hangover.
Yeah their work is needed for the society but then again society needs bank security guards too, that makes security guard a prestige job?
I was a bartender, so I saw lots of dudes trying their job titles to get laid, being a dentist rarely helped boyo

From what I've seen, medical doctors can pick up pretty well. That is, if they aren't completely obnoxious about sharing who they are to girls. Dental students I've seen in my cohort don't do that badly. Some guys are dating some pretty gorgeous women. I've also landed a nice girl who admires the dedication I've been putting in, and my vision. What it all mainly comes down to, is the individual guy, how they carry themselves etc (you know the rest).

One dentist you have seen =/= dentists in general
I don't know what country you live in (USA I'm guessing?), however here in Australia there is quite a lot of public health advocacy done by the Australian Dental Association, in conjunction with leading dental manufacturers such as Colgate... in speaking about the deleterious effects of sugary/acidic drinks on dental health.
This is typically done through many TV ads, newspaper ads and so on. I think you would have to be living under a rock, if in Australia, you have never heard of or seen any campaigning against sugary/acidic drinks, from dental authorities.
The NUMBER ONE method to reduce dental caries? Prevention! Sure, dentists' appointment books are filled out a bit more by patients requiring consults for potential caries... however it's actually very annoying to see patients again and again not listening to said advice. Big reason? Laziness, lack of importance attributed to dental hygiene, and being "preoccupied" with other things.
Dental health is more important than most people think.For one example - people that have periodontal disease also have a very increased risk of coronary artery disease. Your gums are very vascular. Thus, if your gums are damaged... and bacteria gets introduced into your bloodstream, they can go elsewhere in your body and trigger inflammation. Studies show that the bacteria found in periodontal disease (Streptococcus sanguis), which plays a role in stroke, spreads to the heart. The two go hand-in-hand.

It's certainly not as prestigious as a street cleaner, or a pizza delivery guy. Many long hours of dedicated study/sacrifice/competition/pursuit of knowledge in those roles.

Dental health is more important than most people think.For one example - people that have periodontal disease also have a very increased risk of coronary artery disease. Your gums are very vascular. Thus, if your gums are damaged... and bacteria gets introduced into your bloodstream, they can go elsewhere in your body and trigger inflammation. Studies show that the bacteria found in periodontal disease (Streptococcus sanguis), which plays a role in stroke, spreads to the heart. The two go hand-in-hand.
Was expecting more bull****, but I'm impressed.

I know of graduate pharmacists getting $24/hour. Just lmfao. Brb, slaving away hard at university over hardcore medicinal chemistry and pharmacology.... and getting fukking nowhere.
I have 7 pharmacists in my doctor of dental medicine degree, who quit pharmacy due to the chit condition of it in Australia at the moment. Their average annual salary coming out of uni was a piss-poor $48k/year.
No where near the stratosphere of what a graduate dentist here earns.
Should be obvious m8 but OP and the discussion is US-centric. In the states, both pharmacy and dentistry are doctorate degrees ie not "straight out of college [undergrad]".

But yeah PharmD grads make starting $100k-$130k in my area in south US, depending on hospital vs retail. As young as 24yo. I know this because I work in pharmacy finance.
Dentists can have a higher salary long term though. Both great professions alternative to "that other Doctor".

Thanks for your opinion.
It's certainly not as prestigious as a street cleaner, or a pizza delivery guy. Many long hours of dedicated study/sacrifice/competition/pursuit of knowledge in those roles.
No need to get so defensive, it's just not something that really captures the general public.It's certainly not as prestigious as a street cleaner, or a pizza delivery guy. Many long hours of dedicated study/sacrifice/competition/pursuit of knowledge in those roles.
Everyone knows it's hard and that they make good money, but besides that most people hate dentists and want to avoid them at all costs.
