The Dental Practicality Index (DPI) has been designed to describe on a clinical level, the 'practicality' of dental restorative treatment. Applicable to everyday clinical practice, the DPI also aims to assist the clinician in deciding when to seek advice and/or refer a patient for secondary or tertiary dental care. It is hoped that this tool will aid in the systematic assessment of dental restorative problems, enhance communication between collaborating practitioners and help to manage patient expectations before carrying out restorative treatment(s).
牙科实用性指数（DPI）旨在从临床层面描述牙齿修复治疗的“实用性”。适用于日常临床实践，DPI还旨在帮助临床医生决定何时寻求建议和/或将患者转介至二级或三级牙科护理。希望该工具将有助于对牙齿修复问题进行系统评估，加强协作医生之间的沟通，并在进行修复治疗之前帮助管理患者的期望。
