Practice profile time survey and government policy.
A practice profile time survey developed by FDI/WHO JWG 9 was employed by Hong Kong Dental Association in collaboration with the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Hong Kong, as part of an exercise to assess oral health manpower requirements in Hong Kong. The results highlighted specific features of private dental practice reflecting needs and demands of the indigenous population. The protocol was found to be reliable and could be used by national associations to collect information required in the monitoring of oral health services, as well as formulation of government policies.
