What the count covers

28 NPPES records list oral & maxillofacial surgery (d.m.d.) (204E00000X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Tennessee: 0.4 per 100,000 residents against 0.4 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Nashville has 10 of them (36%).

A record is a registration a provider made and keeps up to date: it shows neither that the provider is licensed nor that they still practice there. The state's own license search is the check.
