Regional Variations in the Provision of Orthodontic Treatment in England and Wales

Abstract
A notable feature of British Orthodontics in recent years has been the enormous increase in the number of cases taken on for treatment by practitioners in the National Health Service. Whilst references have been made in the past to possible regional variations in demand, no effort has been made to relate this to the local child population. The present study attempts this. The familiar North and South difference is found with some discrepancies and an explanation is offered.
