I know that with some health degrees you make far more by specializing (MD) and with some (Pharmacy) you can even make less...

How does specialization fit into dentistry? Are specialists making more or less than your average dentist?


Sorry if it's a stupid question or has been asked before.

Heh, most of the salary reports I have seen seem to show that.

Anyone have any accurate (or sort of accurate) salary information by specialty?
