Dental Industry Could Show “Healthy Bounce Back” In May Jobs Report

Australian study finds 'no-drill' dentistry stops tooth decay ... CNBC (6/4, Coombs) reports, “Dentistry saw the biggest employment losses in the health care sector care in April, shedding more than 500,000 jobs, but preliminary data from the American Dental Association show the dental sector could see a healthy bounce back in the May jobs report.” The article states, “By last week, 90% of dental practices had reopened, up from 65% in mid-May,” and “more than three out of four practices report paying their staff fully, with patient volumes at about 52% of pre-COVID levels by the end of the month.” Marko Vujicic, PhD, ADA’s chief economist and vice president of the ADA Health Policy Institute, said the dental industry is recovering faster than initially expected.
