A survey conducted in United States in 2019 and 2020, asked respondents if they had a dental visit within the past 12 months. Among all family income groups, between 2019 and 2020 there was a decline in the percentage of adults who visited a dentist in the last year. Adults having a family income greater than 400 percent the federal poverty level (FPL) were the ones most likely to have had a dental visit in the past 12 months. This graph shows the percentage of U.S. adults with a dental visit in the past 12 months in 2019 and 2020, by family income as a percentage of the federal poverty level.
Percentage of U.S. adults 18 to 64 years who stated they have had a dental visit in the past 12 months in 2019 and 2020, by income as a percentage of the FPL*
* FPL is the federal poverty level: "which was derived from the family’s income in the previous calendar year and family size using the U.S. Census Bureau’s poverty thresholds. The 2019 and 2020 NHIS imputed income files were used to create the poverty levels."
"Estimates are based on responses to the question, “About how long has it been since you last had a dental examination or
cleaning?” Response of “within the past year (anytime less than 12 months ago)” was considered as having had a dental visit in the past 12 months."
