    A dentist is a medical field practitioner. It requires 6-year programs like Dental Science, Dental Surgery, Oral Health, etc.

    You can have double degrees too like graduating as a dentist then continue studying to get another degree for business management.

    Gee! It'll take you like 8-9 years all.
