I'm trying to become a dentist in a few years.  I could make a lot of money as an oral surgeon especially.
That sounds exciting! Are you going to school to prepare for your new career?
Yeah I gotta find a good school to learbn everything about diagnosis and prevention and stuff.
How many years of schooling are required to be licensed as a dentist or surgeon?
4 years is typical.  That's better than what dentists used to be!  They used to be barbers who did it on the side!
Wow! That's kind of terrifying! lol Barbers? wow! So, what brought about the change?
Well it was a Barber's Guild who say the lucrative potential and ecided to separate them from hair barbers.
