I get the impression that carriers are pretty noisy places. They might be launching and recovering aircraft at all hours, and the catapult equipment is seriously noisy. So I hope you sleep soundly.

If you live on the O3 level, yep, sucks to be you.
If you live below the main deck, it is MUCH nicer. Just below the waterline is the ideal place for a JO's cabin.
Ask me how I know......
BTW, the arresting gear engine is LOUD as hell too.
How about an amphib helicopter carrier.
The ships have six fully equipped operating rooms and a 600 bed hospital, by far the largest at sea with the exception of hospital ships. LHD-1 has medical and dental facilities capable of providing intensive medical assistance to 600 casualties, whether combat incurred or brought aboard ship during humanitarian missions. The corpsmen also provide routine medical/dental care to the crew and embarked personnel. Major medical facilities include four main and two emergency operating rooms, four dental operating rooms, x-ray rooms, a blood bank, laboratories, and patient wards.
As a dentist your choices are going to be pretty limited. Neither destroyers nor anything smaller has anything medical but an HM or two. I doubt cruisers have an MD or DDS either. Not that I recall. That leaves carriers, the big amphibs, the one or two hospital ships that we do have, and maybe a couple or three of the big UNREP ships.
I hear now that some of the bigger ships have full internet access so you can email and surf the net. That would of been great when I was in.
I was on a DDG from 2004-2009, we had internet on board, it was E7 and above for the first 2 years, but they loosened up on that. It was on a deployment that I found NES!
So if the small boys have it, you know the big decks do.
Then again, as an officer, you're in great shape. All the comforts of home you will have.
