A commitment to be assumed by clinical lecturers

Rafael R. Moraes

"Recently, we published a study in which we interviewed 800 dentists on the use of scientific evidence in their daily practice.1 The idea was trying to figure out if the dentists read scientific journals and used the information to review clinical procedures. The initial result was a positive surprise: 61% claimed to read articles with certain frequency, especially case reports and literature reviews. However, it was possible to observe that the information present in articles had little influence on their clinical decisions, for which the professionals reported to prefer conferences and short-term courses."
