Do Dentists make more money than Doctors in USA?



In Australia, Dentists make substantially more than doctors if we
compare apples with apples. EG, a dentist will earn more than a General
Practitioner (I believe called a "family physician" in the USA).
Similarly, a dental specialist such an orthodontist will earn more than
most medial specialists.

(Actually, in Australia, orthodontists make $1m+ incomes)

Is it a similar position in the USA?
