    Area of Science:

    • Health Sciences
    • Operations Research
    • Dental Education

    Background:

    • Dental school clinics face challenges in efficiently assigning patients to students.
    • Balancing educational requirements with operational constraints is crucial for effective clinic management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a constrained optimization model for patient assignment in dental clinics.
    • To address key issues including efficiency, educational needs, and continuity of care.

    Main Methods:

    • Formulated a mathematical optimization model.
    • Incorporated constraints related to facilities, faculty, and student educational requirements.
    • Utilized a test problem to demonstrate the model's application.

    Main Results:

    • The model provides a systematic approach to patient-student assignment.
    • Demonstrated the model's ability to improve efficiency and manage complex constraints.
    • Illustrated the managerial impact through a practical example.

    Conclusions:

    • Constrained optimization offers a viable solution for dental clinic patient assignment.
    • The model supports improved operational efficiency and educational outcomes in dental schools.
    • Effective patient assignment models are essential for dental clinic management and patient care.
