The rapid increases in dentist-to-population ratios particularly seen in certain HMIC are likely to lead to an over-supply of dentists, risk of iatrogenic over-treatment and increasing rates of unemployment amongst dentists.
“The rapid increases in dentist-to-population ratios particularly seen in certain HMIC are likely to lead to an over-supply of dentists, risk of iatrogenic over-treatment and increasing rates of unemployment amongst dentists.44”
From Ending the neglect of global oral health: time for radical action. (2019) · cites this paper as [44]
The section “Meet the increasing need and demand for oral healthcare” (page unavailable) reports an over-supply of dentists in some wealthy urban areas. It does not attribute that over-supply to rapid increases in dentist-to-population ratios in certain HMIC, or predict iatrogenic over-treatment or rising unemployment among dentists. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMany dental schools around the world continue to produce dentists who are trained to treat and work in isolation rather than training a wider range of dental care professionals with different and complementary skills to address the oral care needs of their patients and local populations.

From Ending the neglect of global oral health: time for radical action. (2019) · cites this paper as [44]
The “Shape a responsive educational model” section says traditional dental education has not adequately addressed oral-health disparities and calls for more team management and interprofessional education. “The way forward” advocates training different members of the oral-health workforce. The paper does not establish that many dental schools currently train dentists to work in isolation instead of training other dental-care professionals. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredUnlike in medicine, in dentistry there is only limited use of a wider professional team to deliver care.

From Ending the neglect of global oral health: time for radical action. (2019) · cites this paper as [44]
In “The way forward” (page unavailable), the paper calls for a new team-based model of oral healthcare and greater delegation to other health workers, which supports the idea that wider teams could be used more. It does not establish that their current use is limited relative to medicine. (LLM, conf=0.78)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredProblems in dental training and the mismatch between need and provision of care are compounded by the expansion of specialist practices in dentistry.
“Problems in dental training and the mismatch between need and provision of care are compounded by the expansion of specialist practices in dentistry.44”
From Ending the neglect of global oral health: time for radical action. (2019) · cites this paper as [44]
The sections “Shape a responsive educational model” and “Meet the increasing need and demand for oral healthcare” describe shortcomings in dental training and a mismatch between care offered and population needs (page numbers unavailable). The copy does not say that an expansion of specialist dental practices compounds those problems. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
