Dental caries and periodontitis are declining, reducing the need for restorative and surgical care. Future dental providers will focus more on diagnostics and prevention, managing more patients effectively.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Public Health
  • Epidemiology of Oral Diseases

Background:

  • Oral disease patterns, specifically dental caries and periodontitis, have significantly transformed over the last decade.
  • This transformation is particularly evident in younger populations, showing a reduced need for extensive dental treatments compared to previous generations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the changing landscape of oral diseases and their impact on dental practice.
  • To project future trends in dental care needs and service delivery.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of epidemiological trends in dental caries and periodontitis.
  • Projection of future per-capita treatment needs based on current data.

Main Results:

  • A notable decrease in the demand for restorative and periodontal procedures has been observed, especially in younger demographics.
