Mr Derek Richards, Director of the Centre for Evidence
Based Dentistry at the Institute for Health Sciences, University of Oxford, |
| Dates |
14-18 May 2007. |
| Location |
Rewley House, Department
for Continuing Education in central Oxford. |
| Description |
Oxford University is offering a 2-day introductory course or a longer 5-day
course in evidence-based dentistry during the week 14-18 May 2007.
The course has been developed specifically for dentists and other oral
healthcare professionals who either want an introduction to evidence-based
dentistry or a more comprehensive course. The course aims to help dentists
and oral health care professionals develop their understanding of the
evidence-based approach and become more efficient at using the best
available evidence in their clinical and policy decisions.
After the course participants should be able to:
* Formulate answerable questions
* Search effectively for evidence using a range of databases
* Critically appraise different types of evidence for validity and
applicability
* Understand systematic reviews and randomised controlled trials
* Understand measures of effectiveness such as likelihood ratios and
numbers needed to treat
Who should attend?
The course is suitable for anyone involved in the delivery of oral health
care from dental practitioners and academics to commissioners and providers
of services. It will include helpful advice and tips on integrating an
evidence-based approach into dental practice and existing academic
curricula.
Course Format and Faculty
Most of the course will be conducted in small groups using a problem-based
approach, with plenary sessions to present and discuss core skills.
The course director Mr Derek Richards, Director of the Centre for Evidence
Based Dentistry at the Institute for Health Sciences, University of Oxford,
and a team of well-known lecturers on evidence-based practice who have
presented courses in the UK, North America and Europe, will deliver the
components of the course. The course is held at Rewley House, Department
for Continuing Education in central Oxford.
"For me, the EBD course was the single most enlightening and useful course I
have taken in the past 10 years. I was delighted with the teaching methods
and the resources that were made available."
Dr Joe Mullen (Principal Dental Surgeon, North Western Health Board,
Ireland.)
"I am very happy with how the course went - worth flying around the world
for..... The course was well structured, and well paced, and provided a
thorough introduction to the principles and practice of evidence-based
dentistry."
Dr Martin Lee (Public Health Dentist, New Zealand)
