title: [Dental surgery in Lebanon: studies and professional demography].
abstract: Lebanon (about 4,000,000 inhabitants) shows us a surprising dental professional demography. University diplomas to practice dentistry come from 73 different foreign countries. The concentration of dental offices in and around Beirut explains disharmonies of the sanitary map. The studies of these particularities set up the frame of this work. Some answers are proposed.
