Dentistry ranks No. 10 on U.S. News and World Report's 2023 Best Jobs list, moving up from 47th in the 2022 report, ADA News reported. "[Dentistry] rose 37 spots from No. 47 to No. 10 due to its high median salary and work-life balance scores, and an increased employment rate score," said Janica Ingram, staff writer for U.S. News and World Report. Health care and health care support accounted for four of the top 10 spots on the list of the 100 best jobs. The publication ranked dentistry No. 2 in 2020 and No. 1 in 2017.
