For the health-related students and professionals is very important keep updated with the latest knowlege. The dental field is not an exception. The odontology is changing every day as biomedical technology is evolving We should be updated with the new treatments, materials, health programs and more. Personally, I use google scholar or books when I want to have a general idea about a topic. This are very useful when we have to learn fundamental concepts and basic sciences (Biology, chemistry, anatomy, etc.). When I want to find the latest investigation about a patology or treatment, I use pubmed or scielo. In pubmed exist lots of papers, that’s why we must learn how to search in this webpage . Most of the investigation are in english, we should choose the highest level of evidence (meta-analysis and systematic reviews), prioritize investigations made in the last five years and define keywords. Scielo is similar but has more latin-american research.
In our dental program, we have courses to learn how to make a good bibliographic review. We do it constantly and thus offer our patients the best treatment for each case. This is very helpful when we do our thesis project because make a research is not a new thing.
Pubmed is very good! Now I'm using it to do a research project.
