No. Dentist do a ton of different things and orthodontists do one specific thing which is straightening teeth. That's one reason why people confuse of which gets paid more.

You have to take 2-3 years to specialize as an ortho so it would just be common that they'd make more money.

Some dentists DO make more money then them, though. Just get a lot of experiance and know what your doing.

Orthodontists can make anywhere from 500,000 annually to 1,000,000 annually.

Dentists make around 142,226 annually. But remember that the more experiance you get, the more money you get.

Both jobs will increase with experiance so don't start to believe that dentists have a low salary.

Though dentists salary are pretty low COMPARED TO ORTHOS, dentists DO make a lot of money. You'll be in a comfortable state of mind without worry that your money will shorten.

(: hope it helped.

What type oof dentist makes the most money?

It's tough to give a precise answer on what type of dentist earns the most. It depends on which country you live in, and in what part of that country. In most countries, if you are a successfull specialist (endodontist, periodontist, etc.) you might have a higher salary than a general dentist. Although some very successfull general dentists have an interesting income as well. The most important thing is to love what you are doing, and to do it to help people achieve a better oral health. That is the key to success and to earning more.
