A retrospective study was carried out looking at the files of 481 patients who were seen for their first consultation at a university hospital dental school clinic. Their needs for conservative treatment were evaluated and the data from their files were analysed, including the following elements: demography, general health status, the expressed reason for the consultation, and the initially planned treatment. The descriptive analysis reveals a relatively young population group with an average age of 43.8 years, for whom 32% of them had existing or past medical conditions which necessitated that certain precautions be taken when prescribing conservative treatment. The most frequently given reasons for the consultation were the need for an annual dental check-up (41%) and pain (20%). 74% of the patients were in need of conservative treatments, and a priority for an initial treatment was cited for 48.4% of them. |
