It is divided into three parts:

• Competition
• Demographics
• Psychographics (Lifestyles)

The Report is written so dental professionals can understand the implications of the data that is revealed from THEIR perspective.

The Report starts with an Overview that discusses the time-distance measurements (isochrones) needed to determine where potential patients will likely travel to get to the location. This analysis of the speed limits, geographical barriers, psychological barriers, landmarks, and major transportation arteries gives the reader and understanding of the “big picture” of the site.

Included in this section is an overview of “demographic gravity.” This is an analysis of WHY people travel past a given site.

The Area-of-Study normally consists of up to 8 Zip Codes. For specialists, this may include slightly more. If desired, we can provide a depiction of the Effective Practice Area if the client will fax to us the number of patients per Zip Code.

Competition

The ratio of dentist-to-population is examined. For dental specialists, this includes an analysis of the referral base relative to the area of study or practice site. Another map is included that shows the distribution of dentists around the Area of Study.

Our consideration of competition takes into account both individual dentists and dental practices. We draw upon several databases to determine the number of dentists including Component/Constituent Dental Society, Donnelly Databases, Select Data, and yellow page directories.
