>implying dentistry programs haven't been super competitive since the 90s and are no longer a fallback for brainlets too dumb for med school

Competitive yes, but
>implying anyone goes to dental school as their first choice

Dentistry is probably more lucrative and is less of a head ache than being a doctor at this point, I wouldn't doubt there are a lot of people doing dentistry as a first choice these days.

Maybe it's just my opinion. But if I were to do it again, I would still choose MD over DMD as a first choice.

Even a Job in McDonalds is competitive nowadays.

Only the luckiest elite of mathmaticians makes even the lower average of doctor income

Why not both and be a maxillofacial surgeon?
