A small area with a different climate to its surroundings is said to have its own microclimate. Examples include a city or a rooftop garden. The temperature in cities may be around 11ÂºF (6ÂºC) warmer than the surrounding countryside because buildings and paved streets hold the Sunâs heat longer than vegetation.
The average income of general dentists was $161,750 as of May 2011, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The government included 90,950 general practitioners in its survey. More than 80,000 of these general dentists worked as employees of other dentists, where they averaged $164,780 per year. The BLS statistics do not include self-employed dentists.
With an average salary of $166,810 in 2014, dentists earn far more than most other health-care workers. Dentists earn much more than dental assistants ($36,260) and dental hygienists ($71,970). Registered nurses ($69,790) and pharmacists ($118,470) also make less than the average dentist. Just like other professionals, dentists make less than their counterparts in the beginning of their career.
