The Role of Health Services Research in the Renaissance of the Dental Profession.
Grembowski, David
Journal of Dental Education, v61 n1 p10-15 Jan 1997
Recent Institute of Medicine directives for better use of oral health services can not be accomplished without health services research. One central research need concerns outcomes and effects of dental treatment. This will require better measures of a patient's oral health status, data on cost-effectiveness of common dental procedures, practice guidelines, and understanding of market influences on practice patterns.
