What are Statistics?

Statistics is a vital aspect of dental care for research, quality improvement, and healthcare management.

It is used in epidemiological studies to study the prevalence of oral health conditions, clinical trials to evaluate new treatments, and diagnostic tools to assess their accuracy. It is also helpful in patient outcomes and satisfaction, quality improvement, healthcare management, public health planning, and risk assessment.

Statistics provide valuable insights that contribute to better oral health outcomes and efficient healthcare delivery.
