TJ Beazoglou, AH Guay, and DR Heffley
Department of Behavioral Sciences and Community Health, University of Connecticut Health Center, School of Dental Medicine, Farmington 06032.

Important changes in dentistry during the past two decades include a declining caries incidence, an increase in the number of dentists, greater competition for patients, and the spread of retail dentistry and alternative plans for financing and delivering dental services.
