Oral Health and Dental Management

Abstract

The business of dentistry- data, figures, concepts, outlook

Ingmar R. Kupferer

Dentistry is a significant business factor, not only in developed societies and countries. To understand that we will look at the different insurance systems, self-pay options and investigate into the average spending in selected countries. Key figures (like population, their age and rate of requesting dental service) will be evaluated as well as demographic changes. The digitalization of the patient (the request of patients for digital services) will be set into context of the globalization and regulatory requirements.
Finally scenarios like ''The patient of tomorrow'' and the ''Clinic of tomorrow'' will deliver into what to expect in and plan for the future.
