Why is it masculine?
Dentistas is masculine in Portuguese because it derives from the Latin root "dens" (tooth) combined with the agent suffix "-ista," which typically produces masculine nouns in Romance languages, even when referring to people of any gender. The "-ista" suffix inherited this masculine gender from Latin and maintains it consistently across Portuguese (dentista, jornalista, pianista, etc.), regardless of the biological sex of the person being described.
