Is the long grueling process of obtaining a US dental license worth it for an in international dentist?
Currently contemplating the idea of applying but lacking motivation i.e is it a big improvement in terms of quality of life as compared to India?

Thank you
 
If you are young and single - maybe. If you have a family to care for and already lacking motivation, then don't do it. Competition is especially high for Indian dentists
 
If you have a good quality of life outside the US, own your office, practice in your own language and own property then its not worth it. If you practice in a mosquito infested 3rd world country, like where I hail from then.... IT IS TOTALLY WORTH IT!
