18 WORLDS HISTORY AND
NUMBER OF DENTISTS IN UNITED STATES.
At the beginning of the century, in 1800, there were about one
hundred dentists in the United States. Ten years later this num-
ber had increased to three hundred, and to-day our country has
an army of about twenty-five thousand dentists. The figures
below we have taken from R. L. Polk & Co.'s "Dental Register of
the United States;" but the whole number of dental practitioners
is no doubt considerably larger:
