Is a dentist an MD?

A proper Doctor is one who has a Doctorate, a PhD, an MD, a DDS. For anyone else to be called Dr is to denigrate the achievement of a PhD or similar and should be explained to people so they understand the difference. But here is the thing, Dentists were given a higher title, Dentists were given the titles of Surgeons. Aug 1, 2017
