So I've been on the fence between dentistry for awhile. One of the major concerns I have is if being a solo practioner is a lonely career. My perception of the field is that, once you open up your own practice, its basically just you, a receptionist, hygienist, and an assistant or two. After you've been in practice for awhile, doesn't this work setting just become routine?
In other careers you work with many more people, and many of them are your peers. I just feel like you would have no one like you to work with for the next 30+ years of your life. I'm looking for some advice from any long term practicing dentists. Thanks.
