The average income of full-time teachers of oral surgery was summarized in this article of The Manpower Survey of Oral Surgery in 1974 and can be compared to that of the general membership as described in the third article (JOURNAL OF ORAL SURGERY 35: Special Issue A, August 1977). The attitudes of 157 full-time teachers toward the time they spent in training are noted. Although 68.1% stated it was good, 26.6% thought it was too short or that the emphasis was wrong. Thus a substantial number of teachers expressed a need for improvement in their training. Concern also was evident about the time spent on rotations. More time was considered necessary in internal medicine, general surgery, outpatient anesthesiology, surgery in the operating room, research, and neurosurgery. Concern was expressed in another way in that 29.8% of the oral surgery teachers thought that their training was only adequate or poor in surgical skills and 27.3% thought it was adequate or poor in diagnostic skills.
