Rising health-care costs can cause problems in a capitalistic society because they can result in the diversion of funds from new product development. Presently, $500 billion is spent on healthcare, and there are signs that certain treatments are being reduced because of expense. This overall cost reduction will probably impact dentistry most because dentistry is viewed as more discretionary than medical healthcare. Rewarding for systematic prevention in the office is the most ethical solution if treatment funds are reduced.
不断上涨的医疗保健成本可能会在资本主义社会引发问题，因为这可能导致资金从新产品开发中被转移。目前，在医疗保健方面支出达5000亿美元，并且有迹象表明某些治疗因费用问题正在减少。总体成本的降低可能对牙科影响最大，因为牙科被视为比医疗保健更具可选择性。如果治疗资金减少，在诊所推行系统性预防措施是最符合道德的解决方案。
