title: Drowned in information yet starved for knowledge; evidence-based dentistry, what's in it for me?
abstract: A graduate of the ADA Evidence-based Dentistry Champions Conference explains what he has learned about the techniques of EBD literature and literature searches. EBD is the area of overlap among the literature, clinical experience, and patient characteristics. This paper focuses on evidence from the literature. Sources of summarized evidence are mentioned that can be accessed via the Internet, especially those that summarize evidence of the greatest research rigor that have been summarized systematically.
