Indiana Dentist 2012 Licensure Survey Report

The response rate for the survey was 80.7 percent. In the 2011 ‐ 2012 dentist licensure period there were 3,748 total dentists currently licensed in Indiana. Of the 3,748 total licenses, 3,242 listed an Indiana address on their license. There were 2,314 dentists included in the sample for analysis. Individuals included for analysis were actively working in dentistry, responded to the electronic survey, and gave an Indiana practice address on their survey. Therefore, the sample analyzed in this report represents 61.7 percent of the total number of dental hygienist licenses in Indiana. When the mean age and length of licensure was compared between dentists included in the sample and those who listed an Indiana address on their license but did not respond to the survey it was found that individuals in the sample were younger (p < 0.001) and had been licensed for a shorter period of time (p < 0.001).
