Can I ask what a reserve dental officer gets paid?
From the Reserve Forces Almanac 2009
An O-3 / captain, straight out of school, doing 12 weekends and two weeks annual training will make
$7316.62
2010 will reflect a 3% or so increase. This does not include BAH and BAS. Reserve and Guard dental officers do not get the same special pay as active duty dentists do, they get lump sum bonuses or loan repayments (as mentioned above).
So if a recent grad takes a $25,000 bonus his total for the year would be $32,316.62 for the equivalent of one month of work before taxes. This works out really well, unless of course you get deployed, then the finances significantly differ.
