TI  - [Motivation of patients visiting the University Clinic of the Academic Centre for 
      Dentistry Amsterdam].
PG  - 42-5
AB  - Patients (n = 104) visiting the university clinic (UC) of the Academic Centre for 
      Dentistry Amsterdam (ACTA), were interviewed during their first visit. The 
      respondents were privately insured (1/3) and sickfund patients (2/3). 60% of the 
      respondents had no dentist. Most of the patients came for extensive or difficult 
      treatment. The main reasons for visiting the UC were the expected lower costs 
      (mentioned by 46%), confidence in the UC (24%) and the more extensive 
      possibilities of treatment (10%). The UC was judged negatively with regard to the 
      long waiting and treatment time, the less attractive building and office rooms, 
      and the unexperienced 'dentists'; only the latter aspect, however, is considered 
      a serious objection.
