Is there a possiblity that new graduates won't be able to find a job after they graduate from Dental School? Im currently in my freshman year of undergraduate school but Im trying to look ahead and plan as much as possible before it is time to actually start the application process. My biggest fear is not being able to get a job after Dental School and be stuck with an insane amount of debt that will bury me.

Do you think dentists are being over-trained academic side of things? I mean for general dentists, their job description isn't very vast, cavity filling, sealant application, etc. I mean, it doesn't 'feel' like an academic field, it's like if a butcher learnt the anatomy of an animal. If you feel that its necessary for dentists to like all that academic work, do you think it's possible to be able to perform dentistry like a properly trained dentist with only practical education? (say if dentist shortages in war, poor countries, etc)

I cannot afford to go to the dentist. My mother lost her job along with her insurance that I was under. I can't afford insurance for myself at this time. The dentist completed the job, but I never got the cap on and now all of the temporary filling he put in has fallen out and it's just a big hole... What could happen if I leave it uncapped for say until around August/September next year when my college insurance kicks in?
