Continuing potential for pediatric dental services in nonurban areas
Abstract
Recently published pediatric dental-use-pattern data (into the second half of the 1980s), based on a distribution by urban vs nonurban residents, permit a review of the proposal for pediatric dentists to increase practice activities in nonurban areas. Despite a major concentration of the population in metropolitan areas of the country, there are 13.4 million children (between two and seventeen years of age) living in nonmetropolitan areas.
