First of all, to be sure, dentists really make money. Judging from the trend of dentists in developed countries, with the continuous improvement of residents' income, the demand for dental-related medical care will continue to rise, so dentists are one of the highest-paid groups in some countries in Europe and America. With the continuous improvement of the income level of Chinese residents, the demand for dental beauty, dental restoration and dental implants has also increased greatly, especially in first-and second-tier cities. Therefore, the income of various dental hospitals and dental clinics has also risen. It is undeniable that the overall income level of dentists is relatively high in both big cities and small cities. For example, in Shenzhen, dentists are very popular. We take a hospital in Shenzhen as an example. There are about 60 oral medical staff in this hospital, but their annual income can reach more than 654.38 billion yuan, which is equivalent to everyone contributing at least 654.38+0.5 million yuan. And the profit rate of the oral cavity itself is very high. Most consumables are inexpensive but expensive. For example, the import price of a porcelain tooth is estimated to be several thousand yuan, but the stomatological hospital can sell it to consumers for one or two thousand yuan.
For example, there is no cost for tooth cleaning. I estimate that the cost is only a few dollars, but the charge for washing for twenty or thirty minutes can reach between 300 yuan and 500 yuan. It is precisely because of high income and high profit rate that the overall income level of stomatological hospitals is very high. For example, in this stomatological hospital I know, the average monthly salary of doctors is basically above 20 thousand, and some diligent doctors can even reach more than 40 thousand yuan. The income of medical staff in this hospital is mainly composed of basic salary plus performance salary, and the basic salary is not high. For example, the basic salary of doctors is only four or five thousand; The basic salary of nurses is only over 3,000 yuan, even more than 1000 yuan if they are graduate students. However, the performance of most doctors can reach10.5 million or more in one month, and the performance of ordinary nurses can also reach10.5 million or more. If doctors are diligent, they can work overtime for one hour every day and one day on weekends, and their monthly income can basically reach more than 30 thousand.
In addition to the usual salary, they will have a year-end bonus by the end of the year. The year-end bonus of hospitals is not low, and the year-end bonus of doctors can basically reach more than 50,000. If ordinary nurses have been hired, the year-end bonus can basically reach more than 40 thousand. When all the incomes are added up, the annual salary of most doctors in this stomatological hospital is above 300,000, and the annual salary of most nurses employed is above 1.5 million. Of course, what we have listed is only for ordinary doctors and nurses. If you are a director-level doctor, your income will be higher. For example, the annual salary of those chief physicians may reach more than 500 thousand. And this is only for public hospitals, because they dare not pay too much money. If it is a private hospital or clinic, the doctor's income will be higher. Don't be surprised that many doctors earn millions a year.
Secondly, the income gap between dentists is very large. Although the overall salary of dentists is very high, the income gap of dentists in different places is very large. For example, in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the income of dentists is indeed high, but in some small places, such as fourth-and fifth-tier cities, although the income of dentists is indeed high relative to the overall local income, it is not as high as everyone thinks in absolute terms. For example, at present, the annual income of dentists in some fourth-and fifth-tier cities is only about 654.38+ 10,000. If there are no doctors or only temporary doctors, his income may even be less than 654.38+ million.
Finally, although dentists earn a lot of money, they need to get through it slowly. Seeing that dentists earn so much, many people are envious, and even many people regret not applying for medical school and then becoming doctors. But everyone only sees the high-income side, the energy behind it and the things they have experienced, and everyone simply doesn't understand. In fact, these dentists don't earn that much after graduation. Most of them go up step by step, and many people earn less just after graduation. For example, in this stomatological hospital I know, when some undergraduates first entered the hospital, they were not formally employed, but as graduate students, so their income was actually not very high. Usually, their monthly salary does not exceed 1 10,000, and the year-end bonus is 10,000 to 20,000.
Moreover, graduate students have to endure slowly, because stomatological hospitals are very popular now and the competition is fierce. In recent years, when recruiting doctors, many stomatological hospitals basically do not want undergraduates, but require graduate students or even doctoral students. In the increasingly fierce competition, everyone has to endure slowly to see who can endure to the end in order to get a high salary. So don't envy them for getting high salaries. In fact, they have paid a lot and experienced many hardships. At present, many doctors in stomatological hospitals require a master's degree or above. These people have to study for five years as undergraduates and three years as masters, which is equivalent to eight years. In eight years, how many years will you be an intern? Counting this period of time, the average salary will not be as high as everyone thinks, but it is an indisputable fact that the more money you earn in the future.
