Abstract

This paper describes how a dentist can use a new management tool, a computerized dental practice management game, to plan his or her own practice. After reviewing factors to be considered in planning a dental practice, we briefly describe the game with special emphasis on what it can and cannot do. After identifying the information required to make such an exercise useful in planning a specific practice, an example is given which shows how the game can be so used.
