title: Study of computer applications in dental practice.
abstract: The results of this study indicated that some new patterns are emerging in computer usage by dentists. The majority in this study reported utilizing micro- and minicomputers rather than commercial services. The increasing acceptance of personal computers and their decreasing costs will certainly contribute to increased utilization and the development of additional applications.
