I would encourage any man to enter nursing as a professional career, particularly if you enjoy interacting with people and science. I now know BMLT is a medical technology programme (this would be someone I believe who enjoys playing with science directly and is inquisitive regarding laboratory work. So, you see that both are very different fields. It comes down to the individual and where their bliss lies.
Best of luck.

Both has its own financial expenditures, like eqiuptments used and so. Henceforth, do bit more homework of what suits you. If you ask me, though BAMS may have equally the same value but opt for BDS. The opportunities are quite diverse India and Abroad, especially when most of reports by Times of India and so speaks about shortage of Dentists in India.
