Understanding the Dentist Career in BitLife

What does a dentist do in BitLife?

Becoming a dentist in BitLife is more than just another doctor job—it’s one of the top and best-paying jobs you can go for in the game. Once you put on that (game) mask and gloves, you’re set to make good money while helping people keep their nice smiles. In BitLife, the dentist career is right up there with doctors, lawyers, and bosses.

Why do so many people try for this path? Two big reasons come to mind:

• Great Salary: Dentists in BitLife can earn starting pay between $80,000–$150,000 and can get even more as you level up your job. The best dentists can even make $300,000 to $500,000 with effort.
• Respect & Steady Job: Dentists are needed all the time, just like in real life. You’ll get high social status, live longer, and have a steady (and usually calm) job.

But it’s not always easy. If you want to play out working hard to reach a job in medicine—but much quicker—BitLife has you covered.

Essential Attributes for a BitLife Dentist

Let’s be real: you can’t just relax your way here. BitLife is picky, like real dental schools. Your character needs to be smart, healthy, and if possible, decent-looking (but looks don’t matter much here).

Smarts: Your Key Stat

What matters the most? Smarts, smarts, and more smarts.

Think of Smarts as your brain bar—if it’s too low, your dream ends before it starts.

• Best Smarts: 80–100% is best.
• How to get Smarts higher:
• Read books every year (start at age five).
• Visit the library whenever you can.
• Choose “Study Hard” every year from grade school up.
• Aim for A+ grades.

If you let Smarts slide, you’ll lose out—dental schools want only really smart students.

Health: Your Help All The Way

A healthy character has more energy, doesn’t get sick as much, and can keep going through all the years of school.

• Keep Health high by:
• Going to the gym
• Meditating
• Eating good food
• Taking regular walks

Looks: Not a Big Deal

• Looks matter very little for becoming a dentist. If you have high Looks, it might make dating or friends easier, but it won’t help your dentist dream.

The BitLife Education Path to Dentistry

Let’s break this into life stages. Each step helps the next one, so keep at it!

High School Success

Start on the dentist path before you even hit your teen years in BitLife.

• Pick ‘Study Hard’ every single year.
• Keep reading books and going to the library.
• Stay out of trouble! Don’t get in fights or expelled, or your grades and Smarts will fall. Dental schools don’t want troublemakers.

Aim for straight A’s—this will make getting into college much easier.

University/College Education

You’ve kept your Smarts high. Now what?

• Apply to University as soon as you finish high school. Don’t take a break unless you have to.
• Good Majors for Dentistry:
• Biology
• Chemistry
• Medical Science
• Physics (sometimes allowed)
• Biochemistry

Tip: Don’t pick unrelated majors like Art or Music. Dental schools want science!

Doing Great in University

• Choose “Study Hard” every year.
• Keep going to the library, stay smart.
• Scholarships help a lot: high Smarts might mean free college. If not, get a student loan—you’ll pay it off easily as a dentist!

If money’s tight, no problem. BitLife loans aren’t forever. Getting honors is extra, but not a must.

Dental School: Your Key Step to Dentistry

This is the part that matters most. Once you finish dental school, you can be a dentist!

Getting Into Dental School

• Graduate with a science major.
• Smarts should be almost 100%.
• Health and happiness should be good (over 60%).

Picked the wrong major? Don’t worry. If your Smarts are high, you might still get into medical school and find another job in health—but not a dentist.

Getting Through Dental School

• Pick “Study Hard” every year—now isn’t the time to slack!
• Stay healthy, keep stress low, and keep up your grades.
• Graduation opens up the “Dentist” job—check your jobs list!

Think of dental school in BitLife like a race. Start well, pace yourself, finish strong.

Securing Your Dentist Job

You made it! Now land the job. Here’s how:

• Open the “Occupation” or “Jobs” tab as soon as you finish dental school.
• Look for “Dentist.” If it’s missing, get a year older and check again—they come and go.
• Apply. If you’ve got the right grades (Dental School degree, high Smarts and Health), you should get an interview.
• Interviews are usually simple. Maybe you’ll get a random question, but you’re ready!

What if you get rejected?

Don’t panic. Wait a year and try again. These jobs fill up fast sometimes! Keep trying and you’ll get it.

Advancing Your Dentist Career & Earning Potential

That first paycheck is just your start.

• Work Hard: Make this a habit. In BitLife, it pays off.
• Promotions come with time, but mean more money and fun new titles, like Senior Dentist or Chief Dentist.
• Usual Salary: Starting is $80,000–$150,000. But hard workers can reach $300,000–$500,000 or so.
• Keep Smarts and Health high. Even working, read, hit the gym, and keep stress low.

Special Note:

If you want to earn even more, watch for rare promotions or special jobs (like Oral Surgeon) if your game gets them. These can really grow your cash!

Top Tips for a Smooth Dentist Career in BitLife

Here’s your best list:

• Start raising Smarts super early. Don’t wait till the last minute.
• Never skip “Study Hard” or “Read Book.”
• Keep Health up: You need to be healthy to keep going every year!
• Study first, fun later: Wait until you finish dental school to party, date, or take risks.
• Think about money from the start. Scholarships are best, but don’t worry about loans. A dentist salary pays them fast.
• Keep trying if you’re knocked back. If denied for dental school or a job, just try again.
• Use the library and gym memberships until your career starts. Then you can slow down—but don’t let Smarts drop.

What if I Can’t Become a Dentist? Alternatives & Troubleshooting

Sometimes even your best work doesn’t get you there. Maybe your Smarts are too low, you took the wrong classes, or there aren’t any dentist jobs. That’s alright!

Here’s how to check what happened and what to do:

If Smarts Are Too Low

• Reading and library time help—but it gets harder to raise Smarts when older.
• If Smarts are stuck, making a new character may be your best choice.

If You Picked the Wrong Major

• You might have to go back to college for the right science degree. It takes some time but doesn’t ruin your plan.

Other Medical Careers

Dentistry is tough. If you like health jobs, try these options:

• Medical Doctor: Also top status, but usually needs even more Smarts.
• Veterinarian: Need high Smarts and like animals.
• Nurse or Pharmacist: Both good jobs, with easier requirements.

You can also look into dental lab jobs. If you like making things that help dentists, check out what a dental ceramics lab does to help patients and dentists.
