[Dentist consultations in The Netherlands in the period 1986-1988].
In 1988 almost 65% of the adults, insured by the health insurance fund and 70% of the privately insured adults consulted the dentist. Wearing dental prostheses is by far the most important reason for not visiting the dentist. Most (63%) of the dentist consultations are due to regular check-ups, 14% are prolonged treatments, 12% are treatments following regular check-ups, and 10% are due to pain. Comparatively more women than men visit the dentist; there is no difference between girls and boys.
