Here they are - the stats straight from the site.
"The number of positions offered in the Match decreased overall for the first time in five years, with decreases in positions offered in all program types except PED. The number of applicants participating in the Match for GPR programs continues to decrease steadily (23% over 5 years), while AEGD programs experienced a substantial decrease in participating applicants for the second consecutive year. The increase in the number of applicants for PED programs this year represents an overall increase of 37% over 5 years. The reduction in positions offered resulted in a decrease in the number of matches in all program types except PED, as well as an overall increase in the number of unmatched applicants for the second consecutive year. The number of unfilled positions overall also decreased for the second consecutive year."

There are also a number of programs in the above categories that do not participate in the Match. Any student notified of acceptance to one of those programs have to be notified before the match and if they accept, they have to drop out of the match.
Since people on here are always freaking out about "How competitive is ____" - this should help you decide for yourself. Note: Endo, Perio, Prostho, Oral Path, Public Health, and Oral Radiology are not part of match. Acceptances for those programs are made independent of the matching system.
