Dentists with a physician or dentist parent: examining trends, challenges, and life satisfaction
Although the small sample size of second-generation dentists limits the strength of inferences, these findings highlight the growing prevalence of second-generation dentists in Taiwan, their regret over past choices, and the potential challenges unique to this group. Understanding the pressures faced by second-generation dentists may inform strategies to enhance their professional fulfillment and overall well-being.
