General population demographics in the United States, individual states, and counties are undergoing dramatic changes. Long-term customary populations, which provided the bulwark for many successful dental practices, are being replaced by the many minority populations (in particular, the Hispanic population), foreign-born residents, and many for whom English may not be their first language. These developments are reviewed for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and its counties in an effort to challenge practitioners by the extent of these developments.
