    Increasing dental hygienist numbers may not reduce high periodontal disease rates in the Netherlands. Computer modeling suggests time and financial limits hinder treatment effectiveness, even with more professionals.

    Area of Science:

    • Dental Public Health
    • Oral Epidemiology

    Context:

    • High prevalence of periodontal diseases in the Dutch population.
    • Exploration of dental hygienist workforce expansion as a potential solution.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the impact of increased dental hygienist employment on periodontal disease prevalence using a computer model.
    • To forecast the effectiveness of workforce changes in the Dutch dental healthcare system.

    Summary:

    • A computer model of the Dutch dental healthcare system was used to forecast the impact of employing 2000 additional dental hygienists from 1990 onwards.
    • The forecast for 2015 indicated no significant decrease in periodontal disease prevalence.
    • Time and financial constraints in delivering periodontal treatments were identified as primary limiting factors.

    Impact:

    • The study suggests that simply increasing the number of dental hygienists may not be sufficient to combat high rates of periodontal disease.
    • Highlights the need to address systemic issues like treatment time and financial limitations within the dental healthcare system.
