Pros of a dental college/becoming a dentist?

[AyeshaPalwasha]

Coming straight to the topic, we all know a d. college is only 4 years plus a suitable option for girls, esp. here in Pakistan, but what other plus points can you think of, in terms of becoming a dentist?
Also, do dental colleges teach at least the basics of medicine, so that a dentist can prescribe a medicine or so? I mean, a dentist should know better than the non-health care specialists but want to know for sure.
Hope I find my answers here

For me, M. B. B. S. is anytime the better option to go for, I guess it's about what your main area of focus is! Best of Luck!


BTW I got into a med college, so I don't really have to do B. D. S. anymore!
