The Centre for Evidence-based Dentistry (CEBD) is a UK-based organisation initially established in 1995 in Oxford. Its website was developed to promote evidence-based dentistry (EBD) and to provide its users who have an interest in the subject with a comprehensive range of high-quality resources to enable them to understand and practice evidence-based dentistry. Its target audience is wide ranging and it is a central resource point for both dental professionals and the public.
Its website has been running for 10 years and has recently undergone major restructuring and now provides clearer navigation with important new sections on How to Practice Evidence-based Dentistry and Conducting Research. It can be viewed at www.cebd.org. The aims of this website are to develop and disseminate resources that are suitable for integrating evidence into dental clinical practice. Although the ideas behind evidence-based practice have been with us for a long time, there has been a recent interest in applying evidence-based principles into practice and this website has been set up to promote this.
