The aim of this survey-based study was to recognize professional determinants that account for variations in the level of orthodontic services provided and which distinguish providers and nonproviders of orthodontic services. Multiple regression analysis revealed that four practitioner characteristics explained 43% of the variance in the number of orthodontic patients treated. Dentists who treated more orthodontic patients (1) treated more general practice patients, (2) frequently used multiple sources to keep up to date in orthodontics, (3) perceived their patient base to contain more children, and (4) were likely to have attended an orthodontic course. The null hypothesis that selected characteristics of dentists providing orthodontic services were no different from those of dentists not providing orthodontic services was rejected. The provision of orthodontic services was associated with a higher level of continuing orthodontic education and treating more general practice patients, especially children.
这项基于调查的研究旨在识别那些导致正畸服务水平存在差异，并区分正畸服务提供者与非提供者的专业决定因素。多元回归分析显示，四个从业者特征解释了正畸治疗患者数量差异的43%。治疗更多正畸患者的牙医：（1）治疗更多全科患者；（2）经常通过多种渠道了解正畸领域的最新情况；（3）认为其患者群体中儿童更多；（4）可能参加过正畸课程。提供正畸服务的牙医的选定特征与不提供正畸服务的牙医的特征没有差异这一原假设被拒绝。正畸服务的提供与更高水平的正畸继续教育以及治疗更多全科患者（尤其是儿童）相关。
