Dentistry must embrace evidence, not CDC report flaws
In this Second Opinion, Dr. Jason P. Hirsch looks at the recent data brief issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Center for Health Statistics on dental caries and sealant prevalence in children and adolescents. Dr. Hirsch passionately argues that the report's treatment conclusions are flawed and that dentists need to bring evidence-based dentistry into their practice.
