Although evidence-based decision-making in dentistry is quickly evolving, large gaps remain in our clinical knowledge base regarding every day decisions and procedures. Especially in the absence of strong evidence, as is the case with mucogingival conditions, risk assessment and identification are important components of the clinical decision-making process. Utilization of clinical decision support (CDS) guides, frameworks and systems enhances chairside decisionmaking and improves delivery of patient care. This article introduces an EvidenceBased Clinical Decision Support Guide for mucogingival/esthetic situations. This CDS guide delineates treatment strategies based upon evidence-based risk assessment and when possible, risk management. It provides the clinician with a framework that will support decision-making at the point of care. Recommendations for consultation, treatment and referral are reviewed. |
