  • Title: Removable prosthodontics research--quo vadis?
    Author: Smith DE.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 1989 Dec; 62(6):707-11. PubMed ID: 2585329.
    Abstract:
    The need to improve removable prosthodontic treatment through research has not diminished. Most recent research reports in prosthodontics are in fixed prosthodontics, indicating a declining interest in removable prosthodontics. A survey of dental schools in the United States and Canada reveals that the financial support for research in removable prosthodontics is a mean of $42,500 per year. Present research is not directed toward solving the major problems in removable prosthodontics. The key to making progress in removable prosthodontic research is to interest capable trainees in securing the necessary basic science and clinical training. Adequate financial support is then needed to conduct the research.
