ABSTRACT

The aim of this paper is to analyze the influence that the COVID-19 pandemic had on certain economic aspects related to the activity of private dental practices in Bucharest, Romania, in order to identify relevant factors related to the pandemic’s impact on dental health services. Relevant data was collected from the Romanian Finance Ministry website, covering three business years (2019, 2020, 2021). The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the economic performance of the observed dental practices. This paper highlights different elements that could explain (related to) the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the activity of private dental practices and indicates certain strategies which could enhance economic resilience of dental practices, should pandemic-like crises reoccur.
