They tend to choose implant restore, edentulous area and occlusal function. This way, revenue of implant has become the main source of self-pay in dental clinic. Therefore, this study tried to investigate and analyze whether patients choose implant or not. Based on the basic principle of econometrics, we conduct investigation by Eviews and statistical analysis. Most recipients said that they will undertake dental implant（80.0%） under edentulous.
