Implant dentistry is an evolving field. Variability in study designs, outcome measures and reporting standards among the implant dentistry research papers create challenges for the comparability and reproducibility of research findings. To mitigate these challenges, a Preferred Reporting of Variables in Implant Dentist...
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To systematically review the literature on whether a gap exists between clinical expertise and teaching capability among dental clinicians involved in clinical teaching, and to identify the factors associated with this gap and the strategies used to address it. METHODS A systematic review with inte...
