For students who want to go into academic dentistry and do research/teach, I am wondering, why do they opt for DMD/PhD if they can do research/teach with "just" a DMD? I understand that DMD/PhD is fully funded, but it takes more time, which seems like a deterrent to me. I suppose doing a DMD/PhD program is also a good way to get experience in research, which is required to get funding for research and all...
How would a DMD get research experience? I've read about residencies that require research and grant a masters.
(I apologize if I sound ignorant.)
