The Navy offers several rewarding career opportunities and incentives for dentists. Navy dentists provide dental care for sailors, Marines, and their families, both domestically and abroad. They use some of the most advanced technology without the high costs of starting a private practice. The Navy also offers scholarships to cover tuition and living expenses for dental students, in exchange for a service commitment upon graduation. Dentists have opportunities in various specialties and typically avoid student loan debt. While shipboard duty may be required, dentists spend only a portion of their time at sea. The Navy is looking for talented medical professionals from many backgrounds to support its global missions. Interested individuals should contact their local Navy recruiter to learn more.
