The average dentist in the US makes about $110k a year. While I applaud your hard work in attaining your degree and establishing a practice, not everyone is in such a comfortable position. In other words, some people may not have the luxury you and I have in being able to decide what we can and can't spend money on. Not everyone is upper middle class (or lower upper class?).

Had these prices shifted when I was in school and had 3 jobs, I would have been cutting into rent or food money.
