Description
For persons who had at least one dental visit in the past two weeks, DENTPDENT reports the number of visits for work on complete dentures.
This variable was asked as part of the Dental Care supplement. Information on visits for partial dentures is also available in DENTCDENT. Previously, information on visits for dentures, regardless of type, is reported in DENTFTEE. For additional related variables or more information about this supplement, please use the IPUMS NHIS search function and drop-down menus or see DEN2WNO.
