I know a general dentist in SoCal (LA specifically) is discouraged because there's a dental office practically every corner of the street (and thus they have less salary compared to out of state), but.. why do pediatric dentists still make in the 250k range in the LA area, for example (MORE than a primary care physician in the area)? What makes the speciality so lucrative? Not trying to put the speciality down, I'm actually interested, but I was a bit shocked to see how much ped dentists make...
