摘要
In many western countries, supply of dental services exceeds demand, mainly because of the marked reduction in the prevalence of dental diseases during the last 10-15 years. An important issue is whether dentists can counteract this fall in demand by stimulating increased demand and/or utilization for their services. Some evidence that this may be the case was found in the present study, in Norway. The results indicate that demand and utilization for dental services are influenced by supplier inducement. © 1991.
