Having experienced both the U.S. and German dental systems, I can tell you that sick-based medicine is still the norm in America and Europe. The sick-driven management system in Germany is even more "powerful" due to more social protection and touted access to "healthcare." Disrupting such systems and refocusing them on health management through monitoring individual health indicators will be challenging. Yet, there is hope in dentistry, being mostly individual-practice-based and therefore more flexible and closer in touch with the patient's requirements. Here, dental insurance could seize the opportunity to data mine their databases and "see," which is a health-focused and disease-driven practice. Patients of records in Health-driven practices experience a decrease in frequency and involvement of dental procedures over time, while others receive treatment only when needed, with a constant or increasing frequency of procedures. #preventivehealthcare #preventivedentistry #morediagnosislesstreatment #datamininginmedicine #mindsetshift
