This concise, hands-on text is designed to provide dental hygiene and dentistry students and practitioners with a method for making evidence-based decisions in practice.

The authors intend to develop a concise, yet complete, text on incorporating evidence-based decision making (EBDM) into dental practice. The authors first teach basic principles of EBDM. The remaining chapters help readers apply each step in the EBDM process to their study and practice.

Each chapter includes learning objectives, an end-of-chapter quiz, and exercises to help readers get the most out of the material.
