Its a lot easier for a Dental or Nursing student to gain Permanent Residency than one studying Medicine. For one thing, once you finish the degree you are automatically a qualified Dentist. Medical students have to finish an internship year to be considered a qualified doctor, so you need a hospital to sponsor you. Another thing, Dentists make money, a lot more of it than Doctors even though we are going to have much bigger responsibilities.
