METHODS A 46-item survey with questions on dentists' demographic and professional characteristics was mailed to a random sample of 3,201 general dentists in Ontario, Canada. PPR was measured by visual analog scale and by Likert-type scale questions, which have been validated in the literature in terms of their ability to measure PPR.
