In 1996, the authors were able to visit the University Orthodontic Unit in Marburg, Germany. Author FL was able to undertake the visit as part of a discretionary secondment for specialist training and this article describes the author's (FL) experience of orthodontic, postgraduate training there, and highlights differences between training in the U.K. and Germany.

Health professions education assistance in dental public health has been congressionally authorized in one form or another during the last four decades. The US Department of Health and Human Services (and its predecessor, the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare) has been a focal point for managing these federal programs. This report tracks the history of relevant national legislation, beginning in the 1950s with the Health Amendment Acts of 1956 and continuing most recently with the Health Professions Education Extension Amendments of 1992. The number of dental public health professionals trained and available to provide expertise and leadership to improve community oral health status has been tied to the presence and intensity of federal programming in this area.
