Abstract:
<p>Chronic dental disease is acknowledged to be the most prevalent preventable chronic disease in children and is disproportionately higher for Hispanic children who are part of the nation's largest minority group (Crall &amp; Edelstein, 2001; Flores et al., 2002; Barker &amp; Horton, 2008). In spite of efforts to provide access to dental services, parents make the ultimate decision if and when to take their child to the dentist. Management of this chronic condition lessens pain, improves attendance at school, improves concentration, and improves grades (Dental Health Foundation, 2006; Percy,

Abstract:
Health care resources are often insufficient to meet the demands placed upon them. Managing scarcity and assessing the merits of competing priorities are therefore key responsibilities for health care decision-makers. In April 2006, the new General Dental services (nGDS) contract introduced local commissioning to NHS dentistry for the first time. Primary Care Trusts (PCTs) were charged with managing devolved and finite resources, but they have since drawn criticism as a consequence of variable quality commissioning. Economics may offer some solutions to assist NHS commissioners. Programme Budg

Abstract:
Dental caries is the main reason for placement and replacement of restorations (Keene, 1981). More than 60 percent of dentists' restorative time is spent replacing existing restorations. The replacement of restorations can result in a cavity preparation larger than its predecessor which leads to weakening of the remaining tooth structure (Mjör, 1993). Considering the traditional surgical dental caries management philosophy, it was based on "extension for prevention" and restorative material needs rather than on preserving the healthy tooth structure (Black, 1908).
