    Area of Science:

    • Dental Public Health
    • Professional Practice Analysis

    Background:

    • The American Academy of Periodontology (AAP) conducted its first practice survey in 1980 to address member concerns about career patterns and employment for periodontists.
    • A subsequent study was initiated in 1984 to track changes in the practice of periodontics since the initial survey.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To replicate the 1980 AAP survey on practice characteristics of periodontists.
    • To provide updated information on career patterns and employment opportunities within the field of periodontics.

    Main Methods:

    • A revised questionnaire, based on feedback from the 1980 survey and committee suggestions, was developed.
    • The questionnaire was distributed in Spring 1984 to 2937 Active and 798 Affiliate AAP members.
    • An effective response rate of 55% (N=2082) was achieved after removing unusable responses.

    Main Results:

    • The study analyzed practice characteristics of 2082 periodontists.
    • Data distinguished between periodontists in private practice and those in federal services.
    • Foreign member data was excluded due to insufficient scope for conclusions.

    Conclusions:

    • The 1984 survey provides a valuable benchmark for understanding practice trends in periodontics.
    • This comparative data is crucial for assessing career trajectories and employment landscapes for periodontists.
