Marketplace Dentistry refers to the increasing commercialization of dental care, where dental practices are operated more like businesses focused on profit rather than solely on patient care. This model often involves large dental chains or corporate-owned practices that prioritize efficiency, cost-cutting, and revenue generation. While it can increase access to dental services and make care more affordable for some, critics argue that it may compromise the quality of care, with dentists pressured to see more patients in less time or recommend unnecessary procedures. The shift toward a market-driven approach raises ethical concerns about the balance between business interests and patient well-being in the field of dentistry.
