What the count covers

42 NPPES records list public health dentistry (1223D0001X) as their primary taxonomy with a practice address in Georgia: 0.4 per 100,000 residents against 0.3 nationally (50 states and D.C.). Atlanta has 6 of them (14%).

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.
