Demand for this profession:

The demand for this profession is kind of low because it is expected to rise 18 percent from the year 2014-20204. That seems like a little bit of people doing this kind of profession when we go into those years.

Reflection:

I would not like to be a dentist in my future career because i don't really find the mouth part intersting to do a job. I think it is kind of gross going into people's mouth and cleaning it when you don't even know what they have been doing. It might be interesting for other people to see how the mouth functions but not for me.
