Most student loans come due about six months after graduation, but whether you choose a residency or direct practice will affect your repayment timeline.
Endodontics
It is thanks to specialists like endodontists that fewer and fewer people today are missing teeth or wearing false teeth. Endodontists contribute to their patients’ oral health through procedures that retain natural teeth.
Root canals are the most common procedure they perform. They also provide pulp therapy to keep teeth healthy, repair teeth with perforations, perform root surgery and manage traumatic tooth injuries, among other procedures and therapies.
To become an endodontist, you will need advanced dental education. Program lengths vary, but the average is 26 months. There are 55 endodontic programs in the United States.
