Abstract:
Evidence-based medicine (EBM) has rapidly developed in recent years and is currently a hotspot in international medicine. The guiding principle behind EBM is that any medical decision should be determined based on objective clinical and scientific evidence, doctor's professional skills and experience, and patient's needs and desires. This paper introduces the concept and practice of EBM and explains how it can be used to solve the issues in stomatology.
