Overview

Mission

To create, translate, and transfer knowledge that improves the effectiveness and efficiency of the systems that contribute to improving oral health.

What it reported doing in 2020

The dentaquest institute works to identify the key areas where a gap exists between what we know and what we do. In other words, we work to isolate areas for improvement where we know a better way to prevent and manage disease, but where that knowledge has not yet become a routine part of practice. Working with clinical partners across the country, we then rely on the latest evidence from scientific research, clinical trials, and public health to develop a set of improvement strategies that we believe will help close the gap. We implement those strategies and measure the impact they are having on our desired outcome. Once we develop a level of confidence in a set of improvement strategies, we then package them into a set of protocols, tools, and technology that are disseminated through our technical assitance program.
