Teeth

The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin and...

Area of Science:

  • Oral health research
  • Decision science
  • Health services research

Background:

  • High-quality clinical and epidemiological data are often lacking in oral health.
  • Decision-making in oral health care can be challenging due to data limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the utility of the Delphi formal consensus procedure.
  • To determine how Delphi procedures can augment decision making in oral health care.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature review and appraisal of the Delphi method.
  • Searches were conducted using Medline databases and Google.

Main Results:

  • The Delphi method utilizes anonymous questionnaires to build expert consensus.
  • It offers guidance for topics not suitable for randomized controlled trials.
  • The technique has been successfully applied to various oral health issues.

Conclusions:

  • Systematic and comprehensive guidelines are essential for Delphi methodology.
  • Delphi expert opinion consensus can significantly improve decision-making across diverse oral health scenarios.
