The term dentistry comes from dentist, which comes from French dentiste, which comes from the French and Latin words for tooth.

Dentistry is one of the top jobs in the US. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons are the best-paid dentists. Hesy-Re was an Egyptian scribe who lived around 2600 B.C. and is recognized as the first dental practitioner. However, only one can be known as "the Father of Modern Dentistry." This title is bestowed upon Pierre Fauchard (1678-1761). Fauchard truly metamorphosed the primitive "practice" of dentistry at the time into a new vocation now fully deserving of the term "profession".

Now statistically 80% of dentists are in general dentistry, and 80% of dentists are in private practice.
