Like why do dentists and podiatrists have their own special schools for their profession. Why is dental insurance separate from medical insurance? What makes oral health and calf/foot health so special that it requires its own schooling? The cardiovascular system is really complex yet all cardiologists and cardiovascular surgeons go to medical school first. What makes dentistry and podiatry any different?

I’m just confused as to why dentistry and podiatry can’t be medical specialties that medical graduates can specialize in rather than completely different professions.
