             Dentistry is both science and  art. Since artists tend to be
eccentric - it may well be this trait
             that causes them to retire early.

             The other aspect is steadiness (of hands) - if they develop
arthritis -  they cannot work
             with micro tools.

             The dentists I know of - retired when they passed their 60th
birthdays.

             Hope this throws some light at your topic.

OK, this is an off-topic question except for the fact that dentists
seem to like Leicas.

Dentists seem to also retire early. Is it true that dentistry is a
particularly tough job? Is the rumor about dentists having the
highest suicide rate true?

Or do dentists just retire early so that they can actually enjoy all
the Leicas they have bought?

Just some random thoughts.

Karen
