Practice-based research networks have existed in medicine for many years, but they are relatively new in dentistry. Practice-based dental research is carried out in the 'real world' setting of dental practice. It encounters many problems, especially related to the clinicians' treatment decisions and their variations in assessments of clinical quality. Practice-based dental research networks have been active in Europe for the last 10-15 years and new practice-based dental research networks have recently been funded in the USA. They have been charged with the establishment of networks to carry out short-term clinical studies that have been proposed by clinicians to solve the problems they encounter in daily clinical practice. Data sharing and communication within and among the networks and with the dental community at large are a primary goal to become successful and optimally serve dental practice. A secondary goal is to conduct chart reviews on disease and treatment patterns and obtain estimates of the prevalence of less common conditions. An outline of a possible establishment of a research network is presented and the potential to institute a programme for practice-based testing of dental materials and procedures is suggested.
基于实践的研究网络在医学领域已经存在多年，但在牙科领域相对较新。基于实践的牙科研究是在牙科实践的“现实世界”环境中进行的。它面临许多问题，特别是与临床医生的治疗决策及其临床质量评估的差异有关。在过去的10至15年里，基于实践的牙科研究网络在欧洲一直很活跃，最近美国也资助了新的基于实践的牙科研究网络。它们的任务是建立网络，开展临床医生提出的短期临床研究，以解决他们在日常临床实践中遇到的问题。网络内部和之间以及与整个牙科界的数据共享和交流是取得成功并为牙科实践提供最佳服务的主要目标。第二个目标是对疾病和治疗模式进行图表审查，并估计较罕见病症的患病率。本文介绍了建立研究网络的可能大纲，并提出了开展牙科材料和程序基于实践测试计划的潜力。
