Levine et al. 72 (9): 1067 -- Journal of Dental Education
The capacity to locate, access, and appraise information is an important skill required for success in dental school and beyond. An interdisciplinary course was implemented to teach first-year dental students at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston Dental Branch about evidence-based dentistry, search strategies, critical appraisal of the literature, and dental informatics. Students learned to develop a clinical question, conduct a search to find answers to that question, and critically appraise one of the retrieved resources. Over a period of four years, a total of 259 dental students completed a questionnaire that requested their assessment of this course.

Search informatics, nanotech, omics, health, medicine, dentistry and general science news sources. Most news sources searched are primary or written / reported by scientists. Results less popular and more technical.
This book will lead students & advanced researchers to an understanding of current ideas in the analysis of dental data with informatic tools and will provide general information on how to search for and find evidence-based medical and dental information.
Book provides strategies for the dental team anticipating or using technology to improve the workplace, increase case acceptance, accelerate productivity, and improve patient care.
Dentists have various information needs at the point of care. Among them, the needs for better visual representation and patient-specific evidence-based information are mostly unmet. While patient records and support staff remain the most used information sources, electronic sources other than electronic dental records (EDR) are rarely utilized during patient visits. For future development of dental information or clinical decision-support systems, developers should consider integrating high-quality, up-to-date clinical evidence into comprehensive and easily accessible EDRs as well as supporting dentists' resource use patterns as identified in the study.
