Being a dentist is one of the best jobs in the United States — and the world.
The 2020 U.S. News & World Report rated dentists #2 in The 100 Best Jobs in America. Jobs are ranked according to their ability to offer an exclusive mix of factors. Dentists were also ranked:
According to the American Dental Education Association (ADEA), there are as many reasons to be a dentist as there are dentists. It is a career that provides plenty of rewards and challenges as well as an opportunity to help people and make communities healthier places.
The University at Buffalo’s ASDA (American Student Dental Association) Chapter is committed to engaging pre-dental students with ASDA so that they can experience member benefits as early as possible. All ASDA Buffalo pre-dental activities are entirely organized and run by dental student volunteers. This gives pre-dentals a unique opportunity to learn from students who have recently been in their shoes. Faculty and administrators also often appear at events to share their opinions and answer questions.
