title: Selecting a location for the practice of pediatric dentistry.
abstract: A series of state-by-state correlation procedures was carried out, involving pediatric dentist-to-population ratios and a number of economic and social variables. This was the first step in developing an understanding of the decision process carried out by pediatric dentists as they select practice locations. Suggestions are offered for further directions to be taken.
