How a New Government Bill Could Impact Dentistry’s Future

In this episode of Wellness in Dentistry, Dr. Kyle Stanley and Dr. Martin mendelson unpack a new U.S. government bill proposing to cap GradPLUS loans for dental students at $250,000. They reflect on how the rising cost of dental education and mounting debt burdens compare to historical tuition levels, and what these financial pressures mean for today’s students and the profession at large. The conversation explores how debt caps could shape the future of dental school applications, practice ownership opportunities, and the composition of the dental workforce. They also examine possible solutions from corporate involvement in financial incentives to broader policy reforms and consider the downstream effects on healthcare access and delivery.
