It's common knowledge that people will no longer be using teeth to eat in the next 10-20 years. We will have ready to eat paste that has all the nutrients we need for the day. Oral health problems are practically eradicated globally. I don't think we've seen a cleft palate occur in a very long time. It's also worthy to note that robotics are replacing dentists rapidly. Wouldn't you rather let a robot do a root canal? All surgeries are moving in this direction. Ask any cardiologist or neurosurgeon. All robotics. Save yourself time and money and don't even go to college. It will surely wreck your finances.
