Dentist
A dentist is a person who deals with teeth and the mouth. Some jobs that dentists might have are cleaning teeth, pulling teeth, doing root canals, and also just taking an x-ray of your teeth.
Dentists are important because they take out all of the plaque and leftover food that is stuck in-between your teeth by using specialized instruments and mirrors.

Dentists help people maintain and improve their oral health, quality of life and appearance. Dentists receive a great deal of personal satisfaction by providing an essential community health service, by educating future dentists and by doing valuable research. Dentists treat everyone – the healthy, the ill, the young, the elderly, the disadvantaged and those with special needs.
dentist’s average income is in the highest 5% of U.S family income, according to the U.S. Census Bureau

Well without a dentist we wouldn't know what to do like brush our teeth. And if we also didnt have a dentist how would we get fillings and route canals? right.
Well good luck with your project!
P.S. By the way my brother has a project similar to this!

Ok, chill out. There's a difference between dentists and orthodontists. You go to dentists for cleanings every so often. They'll check for cavities and do fillings if necessary. Might I suggest searching on yahoo or google for the rest? Like what it pays and what kind of schooling is required.

Dentists check for and then fill cavities They take Xrays. They drill your teeth. Put caps on. Clean your teeth. Pull out teeth. Use water picks. Tell you to spit. Administer novacaine. Put you to sleep, sometimes. Use little mirrors in your mouth. Scrape plaque off. Whiten your teeth. . They put in false teeth for people. They always say it doesn't hurt. They give you anxiety!
