I was wondering how competitive is dental school admission?

[lisadersen]

It seems like there aren't as many pre-dental students as compared to pre-med students. Are state schools with lower tuition much more competitive than private schools? Besides required course works, what can I do to improve my chance of getting admission? Is the field of dentistry still a good field to get into? How do dentists pay off the infamous debt after graduation? Does average dentist make at least 100K a year after overhead costs?
