The aim of this article is to present a theoretical model for predicting patients clinical capacity for dental specialties from a practical polnt of view. A detailed mathematical model was presented, with several examples of its appllcation, predicting the exact number of any clinical capacity is an imposslble task due to the complexlty of the influencing factors. However, the model can be utilized with personal customization to provide a predictable educated guess of the clinical capacity for any clinician or specialty. It may provide useful information for planning, management, and evaluation of dental services.
