Factors associated with disparities in out-of-pocket expenditure on dental care: results from two cross-sectional national surveys

ConclusionsThe burden of dental OOPE on Israeli households remains heavy and some disparities still exist, even after the implementation of the dental health reform. Expanding the dental health reform and addressing barriers to preventive dental care, especially among Arabs and those of lower educational level, may help in reducing households ’ private expenses on dental care.
