Description: In 1998, the Division of Public Health began an effort to measure the number and spatial distribution of dentists practicing in Delaware. The study was repeated in 2005 and again in 2008. The objective was to identify under-served areas and to understand any existing or developing trends that could impact the supply of dental services. In 2012, the survey was fielded again, replicating much of the survey instrument used in previous years. This report provides new information and analysis for assessing the need for dental services and understanding trends impacting the supply of dental services.
