| Abstract | Comparable to the history of dentistry in other countries, the dental practice in the Philippines began as a crude craft. The first tooth pullers were barber surgeons and were known as sacamuelas during the Spanish occupation. The first special course resembling that of dentistry in the country was offered by the University of Santo Tomas and the graduates were called cirujano ministrantes. Later on, the term was changed to cirujano dentistas. The history of formal education in the field of dentistry started in 1903 during the American occupation, when the Philippine Civil Commission passed the First Dental Law Act No. 593. Formal dental education in the Philippines was brought and established by the Americans, where the curriculum was the same as that in the United States of America. This created the Board of Dental Examiners (BDE) and subsequently the prerequisites in taking the Dentist Licensure Exam (DLE). This board was made up of Dr. Robert T. Olliver as chairman, Dr. Wallace G. Skidmore as secretary-treasurer, and Dr. Antonio Vergel de Dios as member. It was stipulated in the law, that a person who wanted to practice dentistry in the Philippines, should be a graduate of a dental college recognized by the National Association of Dental Faculties and National Association of Dental Examiners.
