Link to the HEALth Case Studies

This program was designed for dental hygiene and dentistry students to help them learn about evidence-based dentistry and its role in providing quality dental care. This program uses patient-based case studies combined with interactive tools and activities to help students become effective consumers of oral health research data. They learn to locate, evaluate, and use the outcomes of research studies to improve patient assessment, diagnosis, clinical decision making, and treatment planning, as well as help students learn how ask focused research questions and plan a research study.

Anyone may use the patient cases; the research cases require a login. Contact healtheducation@umich.edu for more information.
