The Sydney Dental Hospital, formerly "The United Dental Hospital of Sydney" was founded in 1905 under the Dental Hospital Union Act of 1904. Originally located in George Street the State Government provided funds for the new hospital in Chalmers Street and the building was completed in 1912.[2] The Sydney Dental Hospital recently celebrated serving the community for 110 years.[3]
