Dr. C. G. Bush, D.D.S., whose office is at No. 8 Kearny street, San Francisco, is a native Californian, born in this city in 1862, and has been engaged in dental practice since 1876.  He is of German descent, his parents being natives of that country, his father a native of Hanover and his mother of Bavaria.  The father learned the dental profession in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1849, under the preceptorship of Dr. L.  Howe, a well-known dentist of that city.

     The subject of this sketch received his early education in the public schools of San Francisco.  At the age of fourteen years he began the study of dentistry in the office of his father, Dr. L. Bush, who has been in the dental profession since 1853, being one of the pioneer dentists of San Francisco. In 1880 Dr. C. G.  Bush entered the Medical College of the Pacific, now Cooper Medical College, where he took a two years' course of study and lectures in  medicine and surgery.  In 1882 he entered the dental department of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, in that State, graduating thereat in 1885, after a full course of three years, and receiving his degree as Doctor of Dental Surgery.  In that year he returned to San Francisco and entered into the practice of his profession, in which he has since continued, in connection with his father, Dr. L.  Bush.
