We need to know more about the economics of pediatric dental practice.
Reports by the ADA, U.S. Dept. of Commerce, and the HCFA all confirm the improving economics of dental practice, a reflection of increasing use of dental services by children of all ages. Unfortunately, the continued activity of questionable proprietary economic surveys results in a jaded group of practitioners continuously asked to respond. It is inexcusable that we just don't know very much about the income of the profession.
