In the mid-1970s when this book was published, dental care in America below the crisis level was confined almost exclusively to the upper and upper-middle classes. With perhaps the highest standards in the world for dental care, this country has done an unnecessarily poor job of distributing that care widely and efficiently. Why? In this book, Dr. Dunning examines not only the organization of dental careprivate practice, clinics, health centers, and the use of auxiliary personnelbut also payment systems such as voluntary insurance plans that are widening the market for dental care. He proposes improvements ranging from an increased use of portable dental equipment to large-scale reorganizations of dental practice. This would make dental care, appropriate to need, available to everyone. When he wrote this book, Dr. Dunning was Professor of Ecological Dentistry, Emeritus, and Harvard University.
