Table 1. Summary of the six patient cases included in the survey.
Figure 2. Model for grouping of consensus on the choice of dental treatment. High consensus: ≥75% of participants agreed on choice of dental treatment. Moderate consensus: 50–74% of participants agreed on choice of dental treatment. Low consensus: <50% of participants agreed on choice of dental treatment. Treatments A–D different for each patient case.

Figure 3. Model for grouping of variability of the choice of dental treatment. High variability: ≥50% of participants altered their treatment selection in relation to underlying medical issue. Moderate variability: 25–49% of participants altered their treatment selection in relation to underlying medical issue. Low variability: <25% of participants altered their treatment selection in relation to underlying medical issue.
