A comparison between the cost of establishing a general dental practice in the Philippines in 1981 and 1986 Anna Marie V. Pacifico. 13 leaves Seminar Paper--Doctor of Dental Medicine--University of the Philippines Manila. This is an informative paper comparing the cost of establishing a general dental practice in the Philippines in 1981 and 1986. A survey of the range of prices of operating instruments and equipment were gathered and compared with that of 1981 to provide information to dental students, graduates and practitioners who wish to set-up, expand or update a dental office. Based on the data gathered one would expect an increase in the cost of setting up a practice through the years. But this should not deter the young dentist from wanting to open his own practice. He should set clearly his priorities keeping in mind the practical use he derives from the equipment rather than the price. Practice Management, Dental Economics. Dujunco, Eligio (Adviser).
