Evidence-based dentistry 1 article

Evidence-based dentistry combines the best available research evidence with clinical expertise and the preferences, circumstances and values of the patient. It involves framing answerable clinical questions, appraising the quality and relevance of studies, and applying findings to individual decisions rather than following evidence in isolation. The approach can inform prevention, diagnosis and treatment across dental specialties. It is a method of decision-making, not a single guideline, journal or research design.
