Don’t do it
Answer is it depends…Do you feel this person is the one you will marry? If yes, this is no different than a long drawn out illness post marriage - to draw comparision in terms of severity of problem. You plan to the extent possible and face it together.
If you are not sure about getting married and are just dating, then this is a significant consideration before getting involved with this person any further.
My wife’s father is no more after a serious illness that killed him after a couple of months in the hospital and the responsibility of her family has suddenly fallen upon me (her mom was a homemaker, sister is studying). Its just something my wife and I plan together for, and go through.
Side Note: Dentists do make enough over their lifetime to make the debt feel small, but you will spend your 20s and 30s in debt unless you have a couple of million lying around.
750k for dental school??? That’s ridiculous

Here’s an example of NYU (one of the largest dental schools )

Not pharmacy - life science consulting. About 6 figures for entry level
Depends on how much they’re making a year and what their drive and plan is to clear their debts. I wouldn’t be with someone who didn’t have a plan and an aggressive one at that. 100k sure. 750k? Whew 🫣
750K? My college degree in computer science was only 26K… and now I’m making 6 figures fresh out of college. I can’t imagine having a 750K debt, that’s like half a house

Dentists on average make (200K) but I think it’s not fair to compare your friends who are in tech to the average worker out of college.

dentist can clear 200K in the right practices so could be not too bad to pull this off
Also dental school is predatory. Most dental schools charge upwards of 500K+ for tuition (a lot of dental schools are private not public) so you go wherever you get in. Especially if you have to do a residency for dentistry(unlike medicine is not paid and often costs ~200K) but you’ll be making almost 300K after

Yeah I mean it’s not ideal but you have to do what you gotta do
They would have to come with some sort of trust fund or rich grandparent that’s about to die and gift them a big payout
