Study summary

This study focused on improving the quality of dental care by fostering movement of the latest scientific advances into daily clinical practice.

Read the detailed description

Phase 1 - development of two instruments (a patient brochure that described non-invasive caries treatment and a patient questionnaire of satisfaction with non-invasive caries treatment).

Phase 2 - field tested the patient brochure

Phase 3 - pilot tested the patient brochure, quantifying patient satisfaction with non-invasive caries treatments and a feasibility study that will inform the design of a clinical trial in dental practices envisioned for a later study.
