a

Licensed dentists excluding orthodontists. Orthodontic revenues were also excluded. Note that due to random sampling from distributions, modelled revenue (Table 2) will deviate minimally.

b

Assumed this subset to be zero and shifted to out-of-pocket expenses for restorations, as patients in Germany usually only pay treatments not fully or partially covered out of their own pockets. Note that this shift may affect consistency between subsets to a minor degree.
