Abstract

This was a cross-sectional study done in Lagos, Nigeria on 114 dentists. The aim of the study was to describe the knowledge and attitudes of dentists towards the concept of evidence-based dentistry (EBD). This study also attempted to create an awareness of this concept in the minds of previously uninformed dentists as well as demonstrate its need in continuous professional education via seminars, updates, lectures and short-term courses in Lagos, Nigeria.
