-Overall, the experience with the simulation was great and entertaining. Getting back with touch with friends from the dental field was refreshing, friendly and pleasant. Vensim is much complex program than i thought and should've put more time into constructing the model itself, the author spent too much time gathering evidence.
+In conclusion, the results were very pleasing, because they've met the expectations from the beginning. Model is functioning and can be easily modified on other similiar offices. The numbers within should not change that much, only when you want results for distinctly different office, or dentist approach (he or she might work without the insurance companies, therefore revenues are much higher, or they want to work less time the common average work hours).
-The problem was mainly difficult because it was not possible to connect patient care to the module. After many hours of browsing the Internet, no solution was found, but the blame lies with the author, he had to contact the teacher in time.

-The most important thing is to know the environment and the people you work with. In this case of this work, it is '''a private dental office''', in which there are exactly two employees, a dentist and an instrumentalist. To repeat the experiment with the best accuracy for your own case, it is necessary to have access to the information directly from employees of such an environment. This is a doctor's office located in a small town in Central Bohemian, where there is little to no competition. This applies to many dental offices in smaller cities, only the capital city of Prague has enough doctors to create a rivalry between companies, so we abstract from the variable aspect of "''competitors.''"

If one can redo this simulation, he or she must know how many devices there will be counted and what can their dentist perform and adjust this model to that. Logic behind is that if everything is working as it should, the performance is 100%.

-Due to the relatively linear increase in patient departure due to COVID-19 and its connection to phases, additional precautions are necessary to ensure that patients are not afraid to come. From the interviews, we discussed the topic of introducing COVID-19 tests directly in the workplace, the only problem is that such tests prepared on the spot do not have that high a percentage of success to be given so much confidence. However, patients may need to come because the teeth will need to be repaired sooner or later.
+The simulation proved the ideas from beginning. COVID-19 is indeed influencing the operation of the dental office. If the virus will spread more and more, the dental office needs to do some changes, because their profits might dangerously drop. They are two main ways they can go, to secure businnes continuity. To change something about the approach to the patients or something about total costs.
-Furthermore, it is possible to increase the profit by expanding the dentist's knowledge, for example by attending school for acquiring the ability to perform serious periodontitis or surgery, but this option would require considerable investment and perhaps even interruption.
+Due to the relatively linear increase in patient departure due to COVID-19 and its connection to phases, additional precautions are necessary to ensure that patients are not afraid to come. From the charts we can see that when the phase is in bigger number, people come less, as was expected. From the interviews, we discussed the topic of introducing COVID-19 tests directly in the workplace, the only problem is that such tests prepared on the spot do not have that high a percentage of success to be given so much confidence. However, patients may need to come because the teeth will need to be repaired sooner or later, so the line in the chart did not reach zero. However, in these times, only the ones who really must go to the dentist come. Therefore the revenues are still lower, because the more delicate procedures are not that demanded as before.
-Whatsmore, other variables are optimal. More assistants are not necessary and more staff would cause just higher costs on salaries.
+Furthermore, it is possible to increase the profit by expanding the dentist's knowledge, for example by attending school for acquiring the ability to perform serious periodontitis or surgery, but this option would require considerable investment and perhaps even interruption of the service. Or, in the more gloomy way, the salary of the instrumentalist might be reduced, as it is not at the minimum, author does not recommend that. From economics point of view, there might be a try to find more lucrative supplier of the appliances, but at what cost. In this area the quality is much more than the price.
