Staying Current
The number of published research articles in clinical dentistry grows larger each year. Analysis shows that even in specific subject areas publication is spread across many journal titles.
Two journals attempt to assist busy dentists trying to stay current with the literature by publishing critical summaries of recently published research.
Evidence-Based Dentistry, published quarterly, "filter(s) out
the best range of evidence from a wide range of sources, presenting clear,
comprehensive and easily digestible summaries."
UNC-CH access to Evidence-Based Dentistry
The Journal of Evidence-Based Dental Practice, published quarterly, "presents timely original articles, as well as reviews of articles on the results and outcomes of clinical procedures and treatment."
