Reports, Studies, and Statistics

The Academy of General Dentistry's (AGD) Employment Statistical Map
The AGD’s statistical map entitled “The Economic Contribution of the Dentistry Profession in 2005” details how many workers are employed in the oral health sector in each congressional district and state, as well as the annual payroll of these employees.

One goal of this statistical information is to inform lawmakers on Capitol Hill just how much the dentistry profession contributes to their congressional districts and states, both in terms of number employed and payroll totals. The AGD asks lawmakers to consider constituents employed in the oral health profession as they make decisions on legislative initiatives impacting general dentistry.
