5 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Research in Dental Hygiene  To accurately interpret research, the dental hygienist must understand basic research principles.  Dental hygiene is based upon research and the results it yields.

6 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Research and Dental Public Health  Scientific method: a body of techniques that uses observation, reason, and experimentation to gather evidence that is empirical and measurable  The study of disease in populations is accomplished by conducting research using the scientific method.

7 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Evidence-Based Practice  The concept of evidence-based dental hygiene means that students learn the practice of dental hygiene based on independent research done by other practitioners and scientists as reported in peer-reviewed medical and dental hygiene journals.

9 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Examples of Non-evidence-based Dental Hygiene  “Trial and error” treatment practices  Anecdotal reports of successful periodontal treatment  Selection of oral care products because of advertising

10 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved An Example of Evidence-based Dentistry  It used to be believed that all plaque had to be removed from the surface of the tooth prior to the application of fluoride.  After studies were conducted, it was found that the presence of plaque does not interfere with the penetration of fluoride into the tooth structure.

11 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Did you know? For dental hygiene to evolve into its own scientific discipline, a research base must be established that is solely generated by the profession.

12 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved The Components of a Research Study  Research question or hypothesis  Research proposal  Sampling techniques  Data analysis and interpretation  Research conclusions and publication

13 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Research Question or Hypothesis  Research always begins with a question.  The next step is the development of a hypothesis.  A hypothesis is the result of asking a question that can be researched.  Questions arise from a researchers observations, observed occurrences, and previous research.

14 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Research Question or Hypothesis (cont'd)  Hypothesis: a question to be answered by a study; it is the result of asking a question that can be researched.  Null hypothesis  Alternative hypothesis

15 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Research Proposal  A detailed plan for the study, or a protocol  Used to validate the significance of the research and secure funding  Created after a valid hypothesis is stated

16 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Components of a Research Proposal  The research question  The review of the literature  The research study design

19 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Sampling Techniques  A sample that is a representative subset of the population must be used.  Subjects have the right to participate or not; this can result in a loss of subjects.  A large sample is the most accurate representation of the population.  Important in descriptive studies because large samples produce more valid results  Demonstrates statistical significance of differences when large sample sizes are used in experimental studies

20 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Types of Samples  Random (ensures adequate representation)  Stratified  Systematic

21 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Types of Samples (cont'd)  Judgmental (results in selection bias)  Convenience (results in selection bias)  Cluster

22 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Types of Samples (cont'd)  Research should represent a cross section of the population with regard to gender, age, race, and ethnicity.

23 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Data Analysis and Interpretation  The analysis method is decided upon prior to the inception of the study.  Not all data collected is useful for analysis.  Many times a statistician is used to help with the mathematics.

24 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Research Conclusions and Publication  Most research concludes saying that more research is warranted in the subject matter.  Each bit of information gathered from a study contributes to the overall body of knowledge.  Recent studies can suggest future study questions to be examined.

25 Dental Public Health & Research: Contemporary Practice for the Dental Hygienist, 3/e Christine Nielsen Nathe Copyright ©2011 by Pearson Education, Inc.
