Key Trends Reshaping Dentistry
Date and Time
Location
Office of Research Seminar Series
Dentistry is going through a major paradigm shift, both in terms of practice modality as well as patient mindsets. Solo practice is being replaced by group practice, more rapidly than previously thought. A generational turnover among dental providers is reshaping dental practice. Dr. Deesha Bhaumik will review future trends affecting the dental profession and discuss how the Health Policy Institute’s research is helping advance the profession.
