Are you interested in starting your own practice?

Many dental students are interested in starting their own practice. But this goes deeper than learning the skills of being a dentist. It means you'll have to learn the core competencies of running your own business. It takes a lot to maintain a business and involves a lot of work many students may not have yet considered. From their website: "Because nearly all dentists are in private practice, your interest in entrepreneurial business is important to success. You will be responsible for business operations, equipment and supplies, record keeping and finances, and the potential of hiring employees."
