Description

I cannot help thinking that at the present time general practitioners in dentistry feel intimi-dated by the uncertainties of an ambiguous future, and are simply pursuing their lives and the operations of the clinic on a day by day basis.<BR>There is no hope for the future of dentistry under conditions like this. It is not possible to formulate concerete plans for the future, which are so important to clinical operations, when there is no clear vision of the future.<BR>For these reasons, I carried out analysis of the current situation with concrete numbers based on data that I personally collected, formulated predictions for the future of dentistry based on these data, and in accordance with these predictions established a plan for my own office and clinical operations.<BR>Having obtained some degree of success, I venture to present my personal views and predictions. I would appreciate receiving the criticism and suggestions of my fellow doctors on these thoughts so that I might use these comments as a basis for future predictions.
