Results from the survey show that confidence in the COVID-19 vaccine is higher among dentists than the overall adult population. A May survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation showed 62 percent of adults in the U.S. were at least partially vaccinated.

The online survey was conducted from May 26 to June 8 with about 700 practicing dentists participating. Of those participants, 81 percent said they would get the booster shot when recommended.

At the Becker's 5th Annual Future of Dentistry Roundtable, taking place November 12–14 in Chicago, dental leaders and executives will gain insights into emerging technologies, practice growth strategies and the evolving landscape of dental care delivery, with a focus on innovation, patient experience and operational excellence.
